With the rapid development of technology, the use of different materials and device production for sharp vision has accelerated. One of the areas that benefit from developing technology is contact lens technology. In this study, the production-development stages of contact lenses, contact lens types, and materials used in production were investigated. The pros and cons of using lenses compared to glasses are stated. In addition, the advantages and disadvantages of the production types of contact lenses compared to each other were examined. In the last stage, studies and expectations for the future of contact lenses are discussed.
