Novartis AG said on Tuesday its second-quarter profit fell 32% from the same period last year, as the Swiss drug giant was hit by a strengthened dollar and a weak result from its eye-care treatment business. Basel-based Novartis said net income fell to $1.86 billion, or $0.77 per share in the quarter ended in June, compared with $2.72 billion a year earlier.
