What do contact lenses companies do?
Contact lens makers mould daily, monthly and specialty lenses for short sight, long sight and astigmatism, and supply the cleaning solutions and cases that go with them. Opticians, optometrists and eye clinics fit and resell the lenses, while repeat buyers more and more order replacements online.
Our data comes from the business registers of 20 European countries. SIC has no code of its own for contact lenses companies: they sit in SIC major group 38 (measuring, analyzing, and controlling instruments; photographic, medical and optical goods; watches and clocks), major group 50 (wholesale trade-durable goods) and major group 59 (miscellaneous retail), so within that we select them on the CompanyData industry label for contact lens suppliers. In NACE, the European code those registers use, 130 of them (51%) sit in class 47.78 (other retail sale of new goods in specialised stores), part of division 47 (retail trade, except of motor vehicles and motorcycles).
