Utah Attorney General Jan Graham, private counsel acting on behalf of a certified nationwide class of consumers, con-sumers, and the Attorney Generals of 31 other States, have brought lawsuits pending in Jacksonville, Florida alleging that retail prices of replacement contact lenses were too high because certain lens manufacturers agreed with the American Optometric Association, in violation of the antitrust laws, that their lenses would only be available from eye care professionals or retail optical and mass merchandisers. The Court has not ' ruled on the merits of the allegations. Classes have been certified on behalf of consumers, except those who purchased replacement lenses while they were residents of either Georgia or Tennessee, who purchased replacement contact lenses made by Vistakon, Bausch & Lomb or CIBA Vision. Replacement lenses are those sold or dispensed to replace the initial lens. The classes consist of 1) a national class consisting of consumers in air states excepting Florida, Georgia and Tennessee, 2) a Florida class of residents represented by their Attorney General, and 3) the residents of thirty-one (31) States represented by their respective Attorneys General. A proposed settlement on behalf of the class, residents of the 32 states and residents of Georgia and Tennessee has been reached with one of the defendants, CIBA Vision, with three principal components: (1) a $5 million, interest-bearing cash fund; (2) a Benefit Package consisting of coupons for various CIBA Vision products and a $35.00 cash rebate on the future purchase of certain CIBA Vision lenses; and (3) injunctive relief.
