Women and contact lenses

The ophthalmologist detailed the unusual procedure she performed on the woman in her seventies in an article for Insider, and the doctor wrote:“Although we ask the elderly to come in once a year for checkups, this woman has missed appointments and has not been to the clinic for two years, although her eyesight was blurry, the pain was what bothered her the most.”
