Operating in over 70 countries and serving patients in more than 140 countries, we prioritize meeting the needs of our customers and patients through extensive research and development investments. Our rich history dates back to 1945 when two pharmacists, Robert Alexander and William Conner, opened a small pharmacy in Texas and combined the syllables of their last names to form Alcon. Since then, we have introduced a range of groundbreaking products such as Ophthalzin™ and Zincfrin® for eye infections and red, itchy eyes, respectively. Our innovative contributions continue with advancements like the AcrySof® ReSTOR® Intraocular Lens (IOL), the DAILIES TOTAL1® contact lens, and the VERION™ Digital Marker for cataract surgeries. At Alcon, we pride ourselves on offering the widest portfolio of products and equipment in the industry. Our Surgical division provides comprehensive solutions for cataract treatment, retinal diseases, and refractive surgery, including advanced technology IOLs. In the Vision Care division, we are one of the largest manufacturers of contact lenses and related eye care products, offering a variety of daily, monthly, and colored lenses, as well as products for dry eyes and overall eye health.
