Really, a Dutch invention?

Absolutely. Professor Dr. Jan Worst got the idea to fix lenses to the iris (the coloured part of your eye) when he was helping cataract patients in Pakistan. Later on, he also used this method for lenses intended to replace glasses. Then his wife founded Ophtec. Today, it is still the world’s leading company in the field of insertable lenses.
