Acknowledgements

Thank you for all the support the Department has received this year. We wish to acknowledge the following special contributions below.

Donation of contact lenses for OD contact lens teaching

We would like to give a special thanks to Gelflex – Australia Contact Lenses for generously donating several contact lens trial sets for the Limbal Lift corneo-scleral and Zenlens mini-scleral lens designs. These trial sets will be used in the 3rd year Doctor of Optometry program, for the Advanced Contact Lenses practical class sessions, to provide our students with hands-on experience in fitting these specialty lens designs.

We also thank the ongoing support received from CooperVision, Bausch & Lomb and Johnson & Johnson, in providing soft contact lens trial sets and contact lens solutions for the 2nd year Doctor of Optometry contact lens teaching program.
