We recycle your contact lenses and packaging!

With the popularity of single use, daily disposable contact lenses, wearers frequently have concerns about the extra packaging\s impact on our environment.  Worry not, dear wearer!  Our office partners with TerraCycle and Bausch+Lomb's "One By One" recycling program to ensure materials are properly recycled.  Since these items are too small for community recycling programs, bring them to us and we will send off to TerraCycle.

 

What can be recycled with TerraCycle:

- The plastic basin each sterile lens rests within

- The foil top to the package

- Your used contact lens

What cannot be recycled:

- The sterile saline - dump down the drain and let your municiple water treatment facility take of its own recycling.

 

With your cardboard packaging being the lone item to enter municipal recycling bins, that means every piece of the contact lens and packaging can be recycled.  Drop off your used collection of empties and let us handle the rest!
