A Case Study in Delivering Exceptional Vision
Jose* is a first time contact lens wearer with a low sphere and low cylinder prescription. His optometrist, Dr. Artis Beatty of Eye Care Associates in Raleigh, North Carolina, knew that he had several different options for this patient, but the way to give him exceptional vision was with Duette.
