The origin of another type of glass, the lens, is difficult to trace, because lenses appeared some time before the first year of the AD. In the Islamic world during the 10th century, optics emerged as an important field of study, and mathematicians and scientists made great strides in understanding and regulating light. During the Renaissance, philosophers, scientists, and thinkers used lenses to see the physical world - the stars above us (the telescope was invented in 1608) and the earth below us (after the microscope was made in 1625). Glass has long been seen as a material capable of providing light in a literal sense, but it's worth remembering that glass also laid the foundation for much of our enlightenment.

As technology continues to evolve, the future of float glass designs looks promising. Innovations such as smart glass, which can change opacity and tint based on external conditions, are paving the way for more sustainable and energy-efficient buildings. Integrating renewable energy technologies, such as solar panels and electrochromic glazing, will redefine how we think about glass in architecture, providing not only aesthetics but also functionality.
