Saegmuller">Saegmuller</a>, to manufacture high-precision lenses for optical measurement and founded a <a href="/wiki/Joint_venture" title="Joint venture">joint venture</a> with Saegmuller. At the same time as this new expansion, a research department with five members was started to develop new products and improve old ones. A new alliance with the Zeiss company in Germany ensured competitive advantages for the three participants, Bausch & Lomb, Saegmuller and Zeiss, in terms of patent use and opening new markets. In 1902, William Bausch, the son of the founder, developed a process to create the desired lens shape directly by casting molten glass. Previously, the glass parts for the lenses had to be separated, ground and polished in a complicated process, and this brought significant savings in time and materials. </p><p>The company produced the first optical-quality glass in America during the early to mid-1900s.

Until <a href="/wiki/World_War_I" title="World War I">World War I</a>, optical glass and the instruments made from it (including many military instruments) were often imported into most European and North American countries from Germany. The same was also true of chemical products and laboratory equipment.
