Excerpt
Dear Sir/Madam: These comments are submitted on behalf of the Corneal Design Corporation, a private business engaged in the custom manufacturing of gas permeable (GP) and sale of hydrophilic (soft) contact lenses. A review of the Commission request forpublic comment (69 FR 21833; 4/22/04) indicates that the issues noted for specific comment relates primarily to competition in the sale of soft (hydrophilic) contact lenses which are mass produced in specific sizes andparameters and thereafter held in inventory for sale (stock lenses). These should be distinguished from lenses, both GP and soft which are manufactured only in response to a prescription fora specified patient (custom manufactured lenses). Such lenses may be intended for specific indications (e. keratoconus, ortho- keratology, post- Iasik surgery), or they may be intended for general vision correction.
