New funding for University of Waterloo’s ContactLensUpdate.com

The Centre for Contact Lens Research at the University of Waterloo announced a collaboration with Johnson & Johnson Vision Care to provide funding for ContactLensUpdate.com.

ContactLensUpdate.com provides professionals with up-to-date educational materials regarding best practices and treatment options for eye health, with an emphasis on dry eye and contact lenses. Recently, the site has covered topics, such as the increase in myopia rates and the impact of makeup on eye health.

Content includes insights from leading researchers, patient handouts, review articles and conference highlights. New in-depth features on specific topics are added about six times yearly.

The website, now in its fourth year, is maintained by Waterloo’s Centre for Contact Lens Research and serves a worldwide audience.
