En savoir plus sur le livre

The history of modern eyeglass lenses started back in 1912, the year in which Carl Zeiss presented a revolutionary lens design developed on a sound, scientific basis under the Punktal brand name. For millions of eyeglass wearers, this opened up totally new insights into the visible world. The hitherto unparalleled optical quality of Punktal also helped the Carl Zeiss Eyeglass Lenses division to achieve a breakthrough on the economic front. This book examines the division‘ s evolution – from its humble beginnings in Jena to the founding of Carl Zeiss Vision GmbH, one of the world‘s biggest eyeglass lens manufacturers with almost 10,000 employees. The reader is taken on a journey through the history of eyeglass lenses, during which our understanding of human vision is fundamentally transformed. Numerous innovations testify to the vast amount of technical knowhow incorporated in eyeglass lenses. The book invites the reader to rediscover the world of eyeglass lenses – to see them no longer as everyday objects, but as high-tech products whose evolution is still far from over in the 21st century.
