Bausch + Lomb Corporation (NYSE/TSX: BLCO), a leading global eye
health company dedicated to helping people see better to live
better, today announced the U.S. launch of Opal, a digital
e-commerce marketplace. Designed to help maximize efficiencies for
eye care practices while enhancing the patient experience, Opal
provides a streamlined ordering process for Bausch + Lomb contact
lenses, with select Bausch + Lomb over-the-counter products to be
added in the coming months.
“Opal is an all-in-one digital platform that offers faster, more
convenient ordering of Bausch + Lomb products, helping to save
staff time, boost patient loyalty and reduce the administrative
burden for participating eye care practices,” said Yang Yang,
president, Global Vision Care, Bausch + Lomb. “This platform is the
latest example of our continued focus on meeting the evolving needs
of eye care professionals and their patients.”
The Opal platform, a complimentary offering to eye care
professionals that is accessible to their patients, features order
tracking and history, appointment reminders and automated
prescription reminders. All orders made through Opal are delivered
with free shipping directly to patients’ homes or eye care
practices, and each patient purchase earns points toward the Bausch
+ Lomb Horizon Rewards loyalty program.
“Opal simplifies administrative tasks such as order processing,
inventory management and cost comparisons, to help free up
resources and valuable staff time,” said Jason Tu, OD, Vision
Boutique, San Diego, past president, California Optometric
Association, and an Opal beta tester. “With such a user-friendly
interface, Opal allows my patients to order their Bausch + Lomb
products directly from my practice, whether they’re in the office
or elsewhere. This not only enhances convenience for my patients
but also supports the growth of my business. As a private practice
owner, creating efficiencies in my back-office processes is
crucial, and Opal significantly contributes to that.”
Products are available through a customizable catalog on Opal,
including Bausch + Lomb contact lens brands such as Bausch + Lomb
INFUSE®, Bausch + Lomb ULTRA® and Biotrue® ONEday. Over-the-counter
products will include LUMIFY® redness reliever eye drops and Blink®
eye drops.
