Ocular Sciences

Ocular Sciences was a prominent manufacturer of soft contact lenses, specializing in products for the independent eye care professional market. The company's portfolio included a wide array of disposable, frequent replacement, and specialty lenses, such as toric and multifocal options. It was recognized for its proprietary cast-molding manufacturing process, which allowed for high-volume production of high-quality lenses. In 2004, Ocular Sciences was acquired by CooperCompanies for approximately $1.2 billion. Following the acquisition, its operations were integrated into CooperVision, significantly expanding the latter's global market share.
