Bring your recycling to a participating drop-off point near you. It's free, and you won't need a TerraCycle account or shipping label.
Please note that volunteer administrators (not TerraCycle) manage drop-off points. The administrators choose the location, hours, and accepted waste streams. Please contact the administrator if you have questions about or suggestions for a specific drop-off location.
Let us know if you find a location that is no longer active by emailing us at mapupdates@terracycle.com.
Interested in becoming a drop-off location? This program is limited to independent optometry offices and is not intended to support retail or commercial collections. If you are a retail partner with interest in recycling contact lenses and blister packs, please contact us. Find your closest participating eye care office on the map and bring in your contact lenses and blister packs to be recycled.
Participating in this program is easy and FREE! See answers to frequently-asked questions here.
Bausch + Lomb and other brand contact lenses and blister packs.
No, the Bausch + Lomb Every Contact Counts Free Recycling Program accepts contact lenses and blister packs from all brands.
Bausch + Lomb has sponsored this free recycling program, so there is no direct cost to you.
No, you do not need to clean the packaging before dropping it off, but please remove as much of the remaining product as possible before shipping. Public drop-off locations will not accept dripping items, so make sure your items are dry.
Once collected, the contact lenses and blister packs are cleaned and separated by material type. The materials are recycled into raw formats that manufacturers use to make new products. Click here to take a virtual tour of our processing facilities.
