Colored lenses are popular among high school and college students and are often purchased at malls and flea markets without proper examinations and fittings. This puts thousands of Illinois customers at risk of scratches, infections and potential blindness. | | | | Date Created: | 10-24-2013 | | | | Agency ID: | 1068**13 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000051826 Original UID: 172821 FIRST WORD: State | |
