    Yes. Ethicon is into eye surgery. They just bought Abbott medical opthics. More to come.

    AMO is being integrated under "Eyecare", for the medium term. The retail armof Eyecare, Acuvue, will eventually sold off and eye surgical will become part of Medical. This makes more sense longer term.

    Spot on.
    Acuvue is a retail product. AMO is surgical.
    Vision Care is being systematically stripped to the bone ready for sale.
    It's horrible, but employees can't see it happening.
    The way things occur is my issue.

    Alcon just picked up Mark Gordon as new head of reg affairs so it's apparently starting.

    Apparently something went down at AMO late last week but so far no details. First signs of reorg?

    Does anyone know if J&J is going to dump their distributor in the mid-west, Precision Lens. I'm hearing they are under investigation by the Dept. of Justice. ??

    Don't know if that was a deliberate pun or not - it'd be funny if it also wasn't true.

    the # of J & J guys joined Alcon in key positions is something to look like, many key CGM posts are with J&J persons since 2016
