Presbyopia

Mumbai: Bausch + Lomb has launched a new campaign "Dekho Magar Pyaar Se" in partnership with FCB Group India’s Kinnect.

The campaign proposes a way to enjoy the festive season without spectacles ruining your look, all while negating that judgmental look. So look, but look with loving eyes. It revolves around a condition called "presbyopia," which affects near-vision in adults (typically above 40 years of age).

The solution promoted in this campaign is Bausch + Lomb multifocal contact lenses, a way to correct presbyopia, to continue looking young and to look at those around you with love.

Speaking of this campaign, Bausch + Lomb head of marketing Sana Lairellakpam said, "This festive season we wanted to do something different yet meaningful for our consumers. Presbyopia is something that affects everyone as they cross 40+ years of age, and Bausch + Lomb Multifocal contact lenses can help them. However, many people are not even aware that multifocal contact lenses exist—which can help 40+ people see clearly near, far, and everywhere in between. This means Bausch + Lomb multifocal contact lenses can help them retain their natural look while correcting their vision. Hence, we felt this was an important message we should send out to our consumers via a quirky story of a memorable character and the people around her. This festive season, we wanted people to 'see better, live better and #DekhoMagarPyaarSe!'"

Adding to it, Kinnect ECD Mithun Mukherjee said, "With Bausch and Lomb, we are constantly looking to break new ground when it comes to storytelling. When the current brief came to us, we knew that attracting the attention of the consumer during the festive season would require us to do something that would be relatable to the larger masses. Humour is something that we have dabbled with in the past, but wanted to give a whole new lease of life to, with a whole new story. The result was "#DekhoMagarPyarSe"—a story that pays homage to old Bollywoodesque cinema through the depiction of a protagonist who is suffering from a case of mistaken identity. With a fun-filled narrative and some fast-paced storytelling, we found a unique way to bring the problem of tackling presbyopia with Bausch + Lomb lenses to light."
