Shades of genius

Travellers who suffer from motion sickness may soon find relief in a new fashion accessory. British inventor Tim Flaxman has just introduced TravelShades, sunglasses that prevent queasiness aboard planes, trains, and boats by reducing the amount of motion the eyes perceive. The 53- year- old Norfolk- based horse farmer spent 10 years and close to $ 160,000 to develop the innovative shades.
