Bausch & Lomb contact lenses

In 1853, Jacob Bausch joined forces with Henry Lomb for the sum of sixty dollars. He wanted to develop an optical store in Rochester, New York.

For these two German emigres, the adventure began. Little did they know that they had just founded the oldest and best-known ophthalmic company in the world. The Bausch & Lomb company was born.

Jacob Bausch and Henry Lomb were able to impose their ideas and make their company one of the best known in the world. They became the world's leading suppliers of ophthalmic products.

For almost 170 years, the Bausch & Lomb brand has demanded the highest standards of quality from its employees. Their success lies in the technological innovations and industrial precision to which they have committed themselves, in order to present you with medical devices produced with great expertise.

Numerous patents, microscopes, binoculars, lenses, eyeglasses and sunglasses have come from their hands.

In the 1940s, Bausch & Lomb made a name for itself with RAY BAN, the famous teardrop-shaped sunglasses worn by US Army pilots and movie stars alike.

In the second half of the twentieth century, Bausch & Lomb demonstrated its expertise by designing optics for satellite cameras.

Since 1971, Bausch & Lomb has been licensed to market soft contact lenses. Today, the brand is the world leader in this field.

Always observe good hand hygiene

Using saliva or tap water to rinse your lenses can only lead to discomfort. You risk an ophthalmic infection that could lead to blindness.
