Two-column news story excerpted from a tabloid newspaper reporting that the Czechs have produced a soft contact lens material that can be worn for up to a year. Montague Ruben of Moorfields Eye Hospital reports that we are still a long way from a product for public use and Bernard Donner of the ACLP comments that it could take ten years to perfect. A number of celebrity contact lens wearers are listed.
