ROCHESTER, N.Y., June 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Bausch & Lomb has initiated a national multimillion dollar consumer online marketing campaign surrounding the U.S. launch of SofLens(R) daily disposable contact lenses.

"Yet, despite this fact, according to an annual report published in the January 2009 issue of Contact Lens Spectrum, daily disposables account for only 10-13% of lens fits in the United States."

In order to raise awareness of the many benefits of wearing its SofLens daily disposable contact lenses, Bausch & Lomb has initiated an online marketing campaign driving consumers to www.soflens.com.
