History
In 1853, German born John Bausch established a small optical store in Rochester, New York. He was later joined by close friend Henry Lomb, who invested in the business and became a partner. The company manufactured eyeglasses and other optical goods. By the early 1900s their products grew to include microscopes, binoculars, telescopes, and camera lenses. Bausch & Lomb continue to be a leading global provider of eye care products.
