History

Founded in 1958 by predecessor, Martin H. Smith Co, and then incorporated as Cooper Tinsley Laboratories, Inc. in 1961, the company changed its name to Cooper Laboratories Inc. in 1967. In 1979 Cooper Laboratories introduced their first soft contact lens in the United States. During a re-structuring in the 1980s, Cooper Laboratories was re-organised into three groups, CooperVision, CooperCare and CooperBiomedical, with a further group, Cooper Medical Devices Corp, added a year later. In 1987 the company adopted the name of Cooper Companies, with CooperVision existing as a subsidiary. By the 1990s, through various acquisitions and expansions, the company had expanded into other areas of healthcare, including, among others, medical devices and ophthalmic pharmaceuticals.

The President and Chief Executive Officer & Director is Robert S. Weiss'.

Recalls

2011 - Contact lenses from the Avaira line were recalled following an investigation by the United States Food and Drug Administration into claims that the level of silicone oil residue on the contact lenses could cause blurred vision and discomfort.

Litigation

In 2012 Cooper Companies, Inc settled $27.0 million on a claim brought by a group of stockholders after claims that Cooper Companies misled them about the problems they were facing with contact lenses produced overseas, contact lenses that were subsequently recalled.

In 1988, Cooper Companies was involved in a case brought against them by Medical Engineering Corp, part of the Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, after they claimed that Cooper Companies had agreed to assume responsibility for breast implants that were manufactured while they still owned the business. This was one of many lawsuits related to breast implants and the issue was resolved in 1993 when Medical Engineering agreed to pay all legal costs relating to breast implants, both in the future and still in dispute.
