Twenty years and twenty thousand contact lens patients.

A self contained non commercial private office laboratory staffed by office personnel has been used to prepare contact lenses for private office patients. These lenses include hard contact lenses of various materials and various designs. During the past ten years extended wear hydrophilic soft lenses have been prepared in the same manner as hard lenses, all custom made with lens powers, base curves, diameters, and thickness designed according to the needs of each patient. This has provided strict medical supervision and lens maintenance with maximum convenience for patients and the ophthalmologist.
