An invention in front of your eyes
What is the most important invention? Is it the written word that helps us to record information? Is it the
telephone that lets us talk to people from all over the world? Is it the car that lets us travel at a great speed to meet
others? Umberto Eco, an Italian writer, thinks it is something quite different. He says the most important
invention might be right in front of your eyes. He is talking about a simple pair of glasses.
Modern eye glasses were invented around 1,000 years ago. They were more than just a convenient way
to read. Before glasses were invented, writers, scientists or teachers who could not see properly had to
memorize everything. After about ten years of poor eyesight, they could not remember well enough and
could not work. Glasses meant that people could work in their old age.
The old people who wanted to remember some information could write it down and read it. Eye
glasses are one of the world's greatest inventions and were probably worn by the people who designed
the first telephone and car.
