Here is a snippet from an e-mail I received from a provider of contact lens solutions;
We have been notified by Bausch & Lomb of some very significant price increases which take effect from 1st September. We are currently unsure of the full impact these will have on our prices, but the amount we pay for some products is increasing by over 50%
Bausch & Lomb supply solutions to many outlest that market them under their own name as I am sure other lens solution manufacturers do and usually these costs get passed in full or part to the consumer.
I am thinking of contacting my MP again and asking 'What other patient group in the UK has to pay for the privilege of having a degenerative condition with prices over 10 times the cost of inflation?'
Regards
Gareth
