A partnership for now and the future

At Johnson & Johnson, we believe that achieving success in contact lens wear is built on two fundamental aspects: driving contact lens innovation to improve the quality of vision and comfort - meeting the demands of patients’ modern lifestyles; and the elevation of our educational offering to support the needs of our eye care professional partners.

That’s why our focus will always remain on delivering the highest quality support, designed to match your needs. We aim to aid your professional development, help drive efficiencies within your practice and simplify the processes related to contact lenses. All allowing you to do what you do best and dedicate more time to help your contact lens patients.

Patient comfort, in focus
