Vision Care
Alcon is the largest manufacturer of contact lens care products in the world and is widely known for eye vitamins to help protect eye health. While we manufacture and sell dozens of eye care products around the globe, some of our more widely used products are highlighted here.
Contact Lenses
With the integration of CIBA VISION into Alcon, we now offer the full spectrum of contact lenses.
Contact Lens Solution
The surface of a contact lens may develop dry patches and protein deposits, especially late in the day. These dry patches interact with the eyelids, causing a scratchy, gritty, almost itchy sensation. They also interact with tear proteins, which can make the lens dirty. With all the additional eye care needs of contact lens wearers, it is important to select the right contact lens solution.
Eye Vitamins
Alcon's ICAPS® Eye Vitamins include specialized formulas of antioxidant vitamins, minerals, and carotenoids which are believed to be important to vision and eye health.
Dry Eyes
Dry eye describes a disorder that causes inadequate wetting of the eye. Millions of people worldwide suffer from dry eye, making this a very common condition. It usually manifests itself as dryness, itchiness or scratchiness, burning or stinging, tired eyes and sometimes includes sensitivity to light. In short, it feels like there's something in the eye causing general discomfort. Dry eye can occur as a result of the normal aging process, exposure to air pollution or other environmental factors, or in conjunction with disease.
