Bausch + Lomb reports nearly 725k lbs. of eye care materials recycled

Bausch + Lomb (BLCO) announced its ONE by ONE Recycling program, created in collaboration with TerraCycle, has collected and recycled a total of 119,715,074 units, or 724,922 pounds, of used contact lenses, eye care and lens care materials in the United States – the equivalent of about five backyard swimming pools worth of water. “Seeing this program continue to grow year after year reinforces how powerful collective action can be,” said Amy Butler, vice president, Global Environment, Health, Safety and Sustainability, Bausch + Lomb. “The ONE by ONE program makes it easy for eye care practices and patients to make a real, measurable difference, and this latest collection milestone demonstrates just how meaningful those small actions can be.”
