Vision, a window to the world.
With vision, we connect with others.
With vision, we feel happiness.

That is why we at Santen believe
seeing is integral to life.
As a company focused on vision,
we explore and grow the unlimited potential
of our ability to see.
Because we know we can one day
achieve a world free of vision problems.
Because we know we can one day
create a future full of smiles
where everyone’s vision is nurtured.
Until then, we will not stop challenging ourselves.
