This survey aims at exploring if and how, under the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR), rigid contact lens are modified* by an Eye Care Professional after they have been placed on the market by their manufacturer. This survey is anonymous.
Indeed, EuromContact is drafting a note to explain the legal consequences of such practices now that MDR is fully implemented. To support this work, EuromContact seeks feedback from manufacturers to understand whether these practices are anticipated and how they are viewed by notified bodies.
* "Modification" covers actions such as polishing the surface, adding coating, flattening the back-surface periphery, veneering the back surface periphery, improving the edge, reducing the edge thickness, rounding edge, reducing diameter, ventilation hole.
