CooperVision has acquired No7 Contact Lenses for an undisclosed fee and announced that it would operate within its Specialty EyeCare group.
The companies have partnered in the UK for several years and CooperVision said the acquisition complemented its myopia and irregular cornea offering.
Juan Carlos Aragón, president of CooperVision Specialty EyeCare, said: ‘The acquisition will enable us to directly offer more of our products through No7’s well-established channels, while expanding access to their designs. In tandem, the agreement should further accelerate the development of myopia management solutions in the UK.’
CooperVision said that No7 customers should continue to work with their current representatives and follow established ordering and support processes.
Ashley Pepper, managing director of No7 Contact Lenses, said: ‘We have great respect for CooperVision and have enjoyed a strong working relationship with its Specialty Eyecare team.
‘Today’s news will help us have an even greater impact on the eye care professionals who prescribe our contact lenses, and the adults and children whose vision and lives are made better because of them.’
