2001 ("Amendment No. 1") between Bausch & Lomb Incorporated, a New York
corporation with its principal place of business at One Bausch & Lomb Place,
Rochester, NY 14604-2701 ("Buyer") and Pharmos Corporation, a Nevada corporation

     WHEREAS, Buyer and Seller entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement dated
as of October 9, 2001 (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"); and

     WHEREAS, Buyer and Seller desire to amend the Asset Purchase Agreement to
modify to provisions of Section 6.7.1 thereof relating to the costs of obtaining
FDA approval for LE-T (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement).

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein,
and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     1. Defined Terms. Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used herein
shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Asset Purchase Agreement.

     2. Amendment of Asset Purchase Agreement. The parties hereby agree that
Section 6.7.1 of the Asset Purchase Agreement is deleted in its entirety, and
the following is substituted in replacement thereof:

     "6.7.1 After the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay all of the costs associated
with conducting Phase III clinical testing of LE-T and preparing and filing with
the FDA an NDA for LE-T, subject to the reimbursement rights set forth below. If
the actual, documented out-of-pocket costs of Buyer related to such clinical
testing and filing (the "LE-T R&D Costs") exceed One Million Two Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($1,200,000), then Seller shall pay to Buyer fifty percent
(50%) of the LE-T R&D Costs in excess of such amount until the total LE-T R&D
Costs reach Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000), at which
point Seller shall pay to Buyer one hundred percent (100%) of the LE-T R&D Costs
in excess of that amount up to LE-T R&D Costs of Five Million Dollars
($5,000,000). Any LE-T R&D Costs in excess of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000)
shall be paid by Buyer. If the LE-T R&D Costs are less than One Million Two
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,200,000), then Buyer shall pay to Seller fifty
percent (50%) of the difference. The parties acknowledge that Seller has
previously reimbursed Buyer for all its actual, documented out-of-pocket costs
associated with the performance of the Pre-Phase III studies for LE-T, and that
Seller has no further obligations related thereto."

remain in full force and effect.
