Analyses by Steve Rubinstein, OD(?)
A few months ago, a small company tried to import Lumigan (bimatoprost), licensed by Allergan, in an eyelash applicator. It was held by the FDA as an unapproved use of a prescription medication. Now the owner of the patent is trying to import the same drug legally.
This is the first announcement anywhere in the world about a daily disposable contact lens that is in a breathable silicone hydrogel material. Will it make it across the ocean?
Can Cooper take over the 2 week spherical contact lens market? Can it make a dent in the market share of the industry leader in the silicone hydrogel field? Initial results look good. A definite maybe!
Alcon becomes part of a larger group that is very interested in profiting from eye care. The patient will probably not see any changes in labeling or distribution for a few years. The companies interlock well, but do not have a lot of overlap.....except for sales reps!
