Eligibility and Vesting

	 	
3.1
	
Any Officer (including any former Officer receiving severance pay from the Company) designated in the sole discretion of the Board or its designee, shall be eligible to participate in this Plan provided that this Plan shall not cover any Officer who has a vested benefit in the Bausch & Lomb Supplemental Retirement Income Plans I or II.

In addition, the terms used in this Plan shall have the same meaning as the same terms used in the Funded Plan.  To the extent the Funded Plan does not address, or addresses imperfectly, an issue with respect to benefit entitlement or benefit calculation under this Plan, the Committee shall have the sole discretion to resolve such issue.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused its duly authorized officer to execute this Plan Amendment this   21st   day of      August          2003.

Exhibit 10-c

STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT PURSUANT TO

2003 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

	
     STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT, by Bausch & Lomb Incorporated, a New York corporation (referred to hereinafter as the "Company"), dated as of the date which appears on the "Date of Award and Agreement" in the Award Summary attached hereto (the "Award Summary") in favor of the individual who appears on the Award Summary (the "Recipient").

	
     In accordance with the provisions of the Company's 2003 Long-Term Incentive Plan ("the Plan") approved by the shareholders of the company on April 29, 2003 the Committee on Management (referred to hereinafter as the "Committee") of the Board of Directors of the Company has authorized the execution and delivery of this Agreement. The Award Summary contains the details of the awards covered by this Agreement and is incorporated herein in its entirety.

	
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the Company and Recipient agree as follows:

	
     1.     Award of Stock Unit. Subject to all the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the Company has granted to Recipient as of the date set forth on the Award Summary, a Stock Unit under which Company will grant to Recipient the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company, or cash or other form of property of similar value as the Committee shall determine (the "Grant") indicated on the Award Summary (any such number of applicable shares being subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7 of this Agreement) upon the maturity of the Stock Unit.

     Recipient acknowledges that Stock Units issued by the Company hereunder are an award and are neither a grant, option nor a sale to Recipient.

	
     2.     Maturity. The maturity date of Stock Units covered by this Agreement is set forth as the "vesting" date in the Award Summary. The Recipient must be a full time, active employee of the Company on the date of maturity as indicated in the Award Summary as a condition to receiving the Stock Units issuable upon maturity. The maturity requirements of this Section 2 shall be waived automatically and entire award of Stock Right Units hereunder shall be deemed to have reached maturity immediately upon: (i) a Change in Control (as defined below), or (ii) termination of employment due to death or disability. The Committee or the Board of Directors shall determine whether authorized leave of absence shall constitute termination of employment, which determination shall be final and conclusive.

             For purposes of this Agreement, "Change in Control" shall mean:

             A.     The acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) (a "Person") of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 20% or more of either (i) the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the "Outstanding Company Common Stock") or (ii) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the "Outstanding Company Voting Securities"); provided, however, that the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change of Control: (i) any acquisition directly from the Company (excluding an acquisition by virtue of the exercise of a conversion privilege unless the security being so converted was itself acquired directly from the Company), (ii) any acquisition by the Company, (iii) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any corporation controlled by the Company, or (iv) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a reorganization, merger or consolidation, if, following such reorganization, merger or consolidation, the conditions described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of paragraph C below are satisfied; or

             B.     Individuals who, as of April 28, 2003, constitute the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board" and, as of April 28, 2003, the "Incumbent Board") cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to April 28, 2003 whose election, or nomination for election by the Company's shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened election contest (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board; or

             C.     Approval by the shareholders of the Company of a reorganization, merger, binding share exchange or consolidation, in each case, unless, following such reorganization, merger, binding share exchange or consolidation, (i) more than 60% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such reorganization, merger, binding share exchange or consolidation and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such reorganization, merger, binding share exchange or consolidation in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such reorganization, merger, binding share exchange or consolidation, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, (ii) no Person (excluding the Company, any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such corporation resulting from such reorganization, merger, binding share exchange or consolidation and any Person beneficially owning, immediately prior to such reorganization, merger, binding share exchange or consolidation, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the Outstanding Company Common Stock or Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such reorganization, merger, binding share exchange or consolidation or the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, and (iii) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such reorganization, merger, binding share exchange or consolidation were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement providing for such reorganization, merger, binding share exchange or consolidation; or

             D.     Approval by the shareholders of the Company of (i) a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or (ii) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, other than to a corporation, with respect to which following such sale or other disposition, (a) more than 60% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of such corporation and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such sale or other disposition in substantially the same proportion as their ownership, immediately prior to such sale or other disposition, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, (b) no Person (excluding the Company and any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such corporation and any Person beneficially owning, immediately prior to such sale or other disposition, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the Outstanding Company Common Stock or Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of such corporation and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, and (c) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of such corporation were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement or action of the Board providing for such sale or other disposition of assets of the Company.

	
     3.     General Restriction. This award shall be subject to the requirement that if at any time the Board of Directors shall determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares (as the case may be) subject to such award upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any government regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of such award or the issue of shares thereunder, such award may not be effective in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Board of Directors.

	
     4.     Dividend and Voting Rights for Shares Relating to Units Not Matured. The Recipient shall have no dividend and no voting rights as to shares issuable upon maturity of the Stock Units awarded hereunder. The Recipient shall, however, be entitled to receive payment of dividend equivalents, payable when, as and in the amount of ordinary and special dividends of the Company's common stock, based on the number of shares which may be issuable upon maturity. The right to receive dividend equivalents shall cease upon forfeiture or maturity of the Stock Units.

	
     5.     Non-Transferability of Award. The award granted under this Agreement shall not be transferable by the Recipient except as may be set forth in the Plan.

	
     6.     Share Withholding Upon Vesting. 

             Recipient may elect to have a portion of the stock otherwise issuable to him or her pursuant to the exercise of unit(s) withheld by the Company in order to satisfy applicable federal, state and local withholding tax requirements, provided that such election complies with the following:

             (a)     The election shall be submitted to the Company in writing and shall be irrevocable; and

             (b)     The value of the shares subject to the withholding election shall not exceed the maximum marginal tax rate to which Recipient is subject in connection with the award granted hereunder.

For purposes of the foregoing, the shares withheld shall be deemed to have a value per share equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date the tax liability arises.

	
     7.     Recapitalization. In the event there is any recapitalization in the form of a stock dividend, distribution, split, subdivision or combination of shares of common stock of the Company, resulting in an increase or decrease in the number of common shares outstanding, there shall be a proportionate adjustment made in the number of shares of common stock issuable upon maturity of this Stock Unit.

	
     8.     No Right to Employment. 

             (a)     Benefits and rights provided under the Plan are wholly discretionary and, although provided by the Company, do not constitute regular and periodic payments. The benefits and rights provided under the Plan are not to be considered part of the Recipient's salary or compensation under Recipient's employment for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy or other end of service payments, vacation, bonuses, long-term service awards, indemnification, pension or retirement benefits, or any other payments, benefits or rights of any kind.

             (b)     The Grant issued hereunder, and any future Grants under the Plan are entirely voluntary, and at the complete discretion of the Company. Neither the Grant nor any future Grant by the Company shall be deemed to create any obligation to any further Grants, whether or not such a reservation is explicitly stated at the time of such a grant. The Company has the right, at any time and/or on an annual basis, to amend, suspend or terminate the Plan; provided, however, that no such amendment, suspension, or termination shall adversely affect the Recipient's rights hereunder.

             (c)     The Plan shall not be deemed to constitute, and shall not be construed by the Recipient to constitute, part of the terms and conditions of employment. The Company shall not incur any liability of any kind to the Recipient as a result of any change or amendment, or any cancellation, of the Plan at any time.

             (d)     Participation in the Plan shall not be deemed to constitute, and shall not be deemed by the Recipient to constitute, an employment or labor relationship of any kind with the Company.

	
     9.     

             (a)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Plan, if Recipient voluntarily terminates his or her employment with the Company or is terminated for misconduct or failure or refusal to perform his or her duties of employment (as determined by the Committee), and within a period of one year after such termination shall, directly or indirectly, engage in a competing activity (as defined below), Recipient shall be required to remit to the Company, with respect to any units granted hereunder which mature on or after the date twelve (12) months prior to such termination, the fair market value of shares issued pursuant to such units on the date of maturity. Such remittance shall be payable in cash or by certified or bank check or by delivery of shares of Common Stock of the Company registered in the name of the grantee duly assigned to the Company with the assignment guaranteed by a bank, trust company or member firm of the New York Stock Exchange, or by a combination of the foregoing. Any such shares so delivered shall be deemed to have a value per share equal to the fair market value of the shares on such date. This provision shall, however, become null and void, and Company's rights to any remittance under this provision automatically shall be deemed waived, upon a Change in Control (as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement).

             (b)     For purposes of this Section, Recipient will be deemed to be "engaged in a competing activity" if he or she owns, manages, operates, controls, is employed by, or otherwise engages in or assists another to engage in any activity or business which competes with any business or activity of the Company in which Recipient was engaged or involved, or which, as of the time of Recipient's termination, was in a state of research or development by any such business of the Company.

             (c)     Nothing contained in this Section shall be interpreted as or deemed to constitute a waiver of, or diminish or be in lieu of, any other rights the Company may possess as a result of Recipient's direct or indirect involvement with a business competing with the business of the Company.

	
     10.    Amendment of this Agreement. The Board of Directors of the Company or the Committee may, from time to time, require the modification or amendment of the terms of this Agreement, including, without limiting the foregoing generality, the making of such amendments or revisions as the Board or the Committee shall deem advisable, provided, however, that no termination, modification or amendment of this Agreement shall, without the consent of the Recipient, impair his or her rights hereunder.

	
     11.    Notices. Notices hereunder shall be in writing and if to the Company shall be delivered personally to the Secretary of the Company or mailed to its principal office, One Bausch & Lomb Place, Rochester, New York 14604-2701, addressed to the attention of the Secretary, and if to the Recipient shall be delivered personally or mailed to the Recipient at his or her address as the same appears on the records of the Company.

	
     12.    Interpretation of this Agreement. All decisions and interpretations made by the Board of Directors or the Committee with regard to any question arising hereunder or under the Plan shall be binding and conclusive on the Company and the Recipient. In the event there is any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern.

	
     13.    Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and assigns of the Company and to the extent provided herein to the personal representatives, legatees and heirs of the Recipient.

	
     14.    Severability and Saving Provision. The parties intend that this Agreement shall be enforced to the maximum extent possible. If a court of competent jurisdiction: (i) finds any provision of this Agreement to be unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed excised and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect; and (ii) finds any provision of this Agreement to be unenforceable by reason of its being extended for too great a period of time, over too large a geographic area, or over too great a range of activities, the Agreement shall be interpreted to extend over the maximum period of time, geographic range and range of activities as to which it may be enforceable.

	
     15.    Tax Matters. 

             (a)     The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require Recipient to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy taxes imposed under the laws of any country, state, province, city or other jurisdiction, including but not limited to income taxes, capital gain taxes, transfer taxes, and social security contributions, that are required by law to be withheld with respect to the Grant, the sale of shares acquired by the Grant, and/or payment of dividends on shares acquired pursuant to the Grant.

             (b)     Recipient agrees to take all steps necessary to comply with all applicable provisions of laws of any country, state, province, city or other jurisdiction in exercising his or her rights under the Plan and this Agreement.

	
     16.    Administration and Compliance with Laws.

             (a)     This Agreement shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.

             (b)     The Company is issuing the Grant(s) hereunder. Furthermore, this Agreement is not derived from any preexisting labor relationship between the Recipient and the Company, but rather from a mercantile relationship.

             (c)     The Company will administer the Plan from the U.S. and New York State law and the Federal laws of the United States (except those provisions relating to conflicts of law) will govern all Grants issued under the Plan.

	
     17.    Privacy. As a condition of the Grant, the Recipient consents to the collection, use, and transfer of personal data as described in this Section to the full extent permitted by and in full compliance with applicable law.

             (a)     The Recipient understands that the Company holds, by means of an automated data file, certain personal information about the Recipient, including, but not limited to, name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all options or other entitlement to shares awarded, cancelled, exercised, vested, unvested, or outstanding in the Recipient's favor, for the purpose of managing and administering the Plan ("Data").

             (b)     The Recipient further understands that part or all of his/her Data may be also held by the Company and/or it Subsidiaries, pursuant to a transfer made in the past with his/her consent, in respect of any previous Grant, which was made for the same purposes of managing and administering of previous award/incentive plans, or for other purposes.

             (c)     The Recipient further understands that his/her local employer will transfer Data to the Company and/or its Subsidiaries among themselves as necessary for the purposes of implementation, administration, and management of the Recipient's participation in the Plan, and that the Company and/or its Subsidiary may transfer data among themselves, and/or each, in turn, further transfer Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration, and management of the Plan ("Data Transferees").

             (d)     The Recipient understands that the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, as well as the Data Transferees, are or may be located in his or her country of residence or elsewhere, such as the United States. The Recipient authorizes the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, as well as Data Transferees to receive, possess, use, retain, and transfer Data in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering, and managing his or her participation in the Plan, including any transfer of such Data, as may be required for the administration of the Plan and/or the subsequent holding of shares on his or her behalf, to a broker or third party with whom the shares acquired on exercise may be deposited.

             (e)     The Recipient understands that he or she may show his/her opposition to the processing and transfer of his/her Data, and, may at any time, review the Data, request that any necessary amendments be made to it, or withdraw his or her consent herein in writing by contacting the Company. The Recipient further understands that withdrawing consent may affect his or her ability to participate in the Plan.

	
     18.    General. The Recipient has received, and therefore has full knowledge of and understands, the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Recipient acknowledges that copies of the complete rules of the Plan have also been made available to him/her at his/her work center with his/her local employer.
