Eef van der Worp delivers BCLA lecture

'Beyond the corneal borders' was the title for the British Contact Lens Association's eighth Pioneers Lecture, delivered by Dutch educator and researcher Eef van der Worp (pictured) in London last week.

His lecture described the resurgence of interest in scleral lenses and new findings on the shape of the limbus and anterior sclera.

Van der Worp and Nigel Burnett Hodd co-hosted the Pioneers Conference, which included a tribute to 50 years of soft lenses by contact lens historians Tim Bowden and Andrew Gasson.
