History Of Bausch & Lomb Contact Lens

There are very few brands in the market which are considered as the product

, or in other words which are represent as the product itself. As a matter of fact, even the people instead of telling the product, tells the brand name itself because for them the brand itself is the product. For instance, Colgate instead of toothpaste, Lux instead of soap, Xerox instead of photocopy, Axe instead of deo spray are just to name a few. And Bausch & Lomb also falls under the same category. For millions of users all over the world, contact lenses are known as Bausch & Lomb. Bausch & Lomb has indeed achieved a legendary brand status.

Headquartered in Rochester, New York, Bausch & Lomb is the world leader and best known for offering healthcare brands, offering the finest and widest range of eye health products such as pharmaceuticals, intraocular lenses, contact lenses and lens care products, as well as other eye surgery products. The company traces its roots way back in 1853 wherein a German immigrant John Jacob Bausch opened a tiny optical goods shop in Rochester, New York, and later raising finance from his good friend Henry Lomb who later became his partner.

Apart from what we know Bausch & Lomb for contact lenses as of today, the company was always known for its technological innovation in optical products. The company manufactured the revolutionary rubber eyeglass and variety of other optical products, and by 1903 the company has acquired patents for microscopes, binoculars and camera.

In World War I, Bausch & Lomb developed sunglasses for the military, and also created the lenses that were used on the cameras which took the first satellite pictures of the moon. And later in 1971, the company introduced the world's first soft contact lenses, which were later famous and still known as the Bausch & Lomb contact lenses.

Back in 1971, when most of the lens manufacturer were using the acrylic glass or glass, Bausch & Lomb used Poly-HEMA (which was a latest innovation at that time) and introduced the world's first soft contact lens. Poly-HEMA provided the user an unmatched wearing experience as compared to that of acrylic glass or glass. The product was massive hit, and the contact lenses users around the world start demanding for it. The term soft lens soon becomes popular.

Bausch & Lomb constantly keep on adding new versions and varieties of contact lenses, and keep on expanding their portfolio. Starting from one day contact lens to disposable, and much more; there are variety of contact lens offered by Bausch & Lomb.

Besides, the company doesn't stop there recently they have introduced a new era in contact lens known as the Purevision, which can be worn for consecutive 30 days.
