JSZ Orthokeratology (oprifocon A) Contact Lenses for Overnight Wear

Szabocsik and Associates

Chicago , IL

60601

Approval for the JSZ Orthokeratology (oprifocon A) Contact Lenses for Overnight Wear. The lenses are indicated for use in the reduction of myopic refractive error in non-diseased eyes.
