It is always interesting to see how optical communities operate abroad. One story which recently came to my attention would gladden the heart of many a contact lens optician.
Love them or loathe them the Americans draw a line in the sand and woe betide anyone who crosses it.
So is the case with cosmetic contact lenses.
Helene Britton Urbin underwent the kind of police swoop reserved in the UK for terrorist hostage situations, all for selling cosmetic contact lenses without the right to.
Some may say a little over the top. But let's face it, a fantastic deterrent. GOC take note!
