Get involved +
give back

This one-of-a-kind program helps you properly recycle contact lens waste to benefit more than just the planet.

For every 10 pounds collected, a $10 donation is made to Optometry Giving Sight: A global fundraising initiative aiming to solve unnecessary blindness and vision impairment.

Collect at home + bring to office

Any brand of contact lens waste can be recycled, so start collecting and drop off your recycling at a location near you.
