Successful Refit Strategies for Discontinued Contact Lenses - Dr. Barry Leonard

This year has seen the discontinuation of a number of popular brands of contact lenses. But what happens when that extended-range parameter lens your patient loves gets discontinued?
You’ve put a lot of time and effort into making your patient happy, and now you have to start all over again. Worse yet, the “recommended replacement” may not fit well and will take 4+ weeks to arrive. You don’t deserve to waste your time and your patients don’t deserve to compromise their vision and/or comfort, just because a big corporate lab decides to discontinue a product.
In this ODwire.org webinar, Dr. Barry Leonard, Director of the California Keratoconus Center, joins SpecialEyes fitting consultant Korinne Ladyzhensky to share strategies for successful refits in a custom soft design.
We'll review several real-life case studies involving patient refits, and have a live Q&A at the conclusion where we can discuss techniques for dealing with this increasingly common issue.

This is horrible for Coopervision to do this to patients. I have been wearing hydrasoft toric for over 20 years and now they want to discontinue my lenses. I’m so hurt and upset what am I suppose to do! They said an alternative lense would be the biofinity toric hopefully it works.
