LINCOLN, Neb.--A new program, the “GP Fitter Locator,” is now functioning on the Gas Permeable Lens Institute Web site: www.gpli.info.

The searchable database is available for GP contact lens fitters to make referrals to fitters in other regions in the U.S.

The program has plans to grow to include a GP fitter locator for consumers on the www.contactlenses.org Web site so that patients can easily locate a GP fitter within their geographical area.

Eyecare professionals are welcomed and encouraged to participate and submit their personal information (including their listing of expertise as bifocal/multifocal fitter, irregular cornea fitter and orthokeratology/ corneal reshaping fitter) for inclusion in this premiere database of GP contact lens fitters.

For further information, contact Pam Witham, Administrative Director, ph: (800) 344-9060 or by email at [email protected].
