Refresh Contacts eye drops

Refresh Contacts is a popular brand of moisturizing eye drops specifically formulated for contact lens wearers. The product is designed to provide relief from dryness and discomfort associated with wearing contact lenses, helping to rewet and lubricate them while they are in the eye.

Originally, the Refresh brand was developed by Allergan, an American pharmaceutical company founded in 1948 that specialized in ophthalmic products. Over several decades, Allergan grew into a global leader in eye care and medical aesthetics. In 2020, AbbVie, a major American biopharmaceutical company, acquired Allergan in a multi-billion dollar deal, which is why the AbbVie logo is now visible on the packaging of Refresh products.

While the brand originated in the United States, manufacturing of its extensive line of eye care products occurs in multiple locations globally to meet international demand, including major facilities in the US and Ireland. Today, AbbVie remains the ultimate owner, managing the Refresh product line as part of its diverse healthcare portfolio.
