Steve Colton joined Novartis AG’s Ciba Vision four months ago as vice president of marketing, and one of his first moves was to consolidate the contact-lens company’s ad account at a single agency.

Following an informal review between its roster shops, Publicis in Mid America, Chicago, was awarded the com pany’s combined $20 million North America consumer account.

The win includes media duties, which will be handled by Publicis’ Optimedia International.

Publicis is the lead agency for Ciba unit Wesley Jessen VisionCare, a specialty colored-contact-lens maker.
