In this edition, we will explore the recent developments in eye tracking technology, discussing both the clinical and commercial applications of the technique. First, we investigate the future of contact lens material technology and listen in to a debate between leading experts in the contact lens field.

    Learning objectives

    Learning objectives

    • 1.1.2 Understand how modern research into protein deposition and denaturation may influence the likelihood and course of microbial infection of the anterior ocular surface with particular reference to contact lens wearers.
    • 2.5.3 Understand the nature of two new developments (eye tracking technology and contact lens disinfection developments) in eye assessment and how they may influence future eye examination.
    • 5.2.1 Understand the nature of protein deposition and denaturation to better understand how developments here may lead to more effective disinfection and greater patient comfort.
    • 8.1.1 Understand the potential for eye tracking technologies to enhance and build upon current ocular movement techniques (cover test, motility) to assess anomalies of binocular vision.
