The implications of this are huge and would drastically reduce the numbers of costly surgeries performed daily around the country.

I first saw this news at the Purple Medical blog in this post. Check out the site for more great articles about everything medical, not just contact lenses.

This type of contact lens has protein protection that helps stop the buildup of protein on the contact lens.  This contact is great for those in the military or those who work extended hours and don’t know when they’ll be able to stop and replace a contact lens.
