We believe that it's important to take care of our planet, and hope you do too! We were the first practice in the Elgin area and one of the first few in the entire Chicagoland region to partner with Bausch + Lomb and Terracycle. Together, we can all have a positive impact and leave our environment better than we found it.
Please join us! Save up your used contact lenses and blister packs (the plastic and foil container that lenses come in) and drop them off at our office at your convenience. From there, we package and ship the waste to centers for recycling.
This program is possible thanks to generous funding by Bausch + Lomb, but waste from ANY lens manufacturer is accepted. Please only drop off your lenses and blister packs, as these require special processing for recycling. Any cardboard boxes you have can be recycled through your normal residential programs.
