Recycle Your Contacts!

The Youth Advisory Board on Antibiotic Resistance has been collecting and promoting contact recycling since July 2023. It is estimated that about 14 billion contacts are thrown in the trash annually and many of them are flushed down the drain contributing to microplastic pollution. Microplastics have been found to increase antibiotic resistance. There are many official contact recycling bins provided by Bausch + Lomb! Please recycle your contacts or contact us to help you recycle your contacts!
