TFOS ANNOUNCES NEW WORKSHOP ON CONTACT LENS DISCOMFORT

TFOS International Workshop

 

 

TFOS is organizing its third international workshop — the TFOS International Workshop on Contact Lens Discomfort (CLD). Such discomfort may be the leading cause of patient dissatisfaction with, and discontinuation of, contact lens wear throughout the world. The mission of the TFOS CLD Workshop may be analogous to those of the previous TFOS Workshops (i.e. Dry Eye [DEWS] and Meibomian Gland Dysfunction [MGD] Workshops).
