    I've been hearing a lot of buzz about IOL Development in FTW being moved to HWV starting July 1 and ending in October with layoffs and possible transfers for some who want to move to HWV.

    Work has been coming through at a snail's pace for at least 6 months, people are sitting on their hands, there is nothing on the horizon that management will give a straight answer about, we've been validating lots of equipment and products to transfer to HWV. The Conner Center is getting very empty, labs are collecting dust.

    Obviously I don't have any concrete info, but I'm interested to find out if anyone has heard anything similar to this.

    IOL - Intraocular Lens (What you get put in after a cataract is removed).
    HWV - Huntington, WV (Where the main IOL manufacturing facility is in Alcon US)
