Contact Solution Recall Blog

The FDA is now urging people to clean their contact lenses and looking into stronger testing requirements for new solutions before they go on the market.

Last week, a panel of experts met to discuss precautions that could be taken by contact lens wearers to minimize their chances of infection. The precautions include not re-using solution, cleaning the lenses, not sleeping with lenses in, and removing the lenses before going swimming or using a hot tub.

The experts are also suggesting the FDA develop more stringent rules and standards for new contact lens solutions. This meeting took place nearly two years after a recall was originally issued.

If you were negatively impacted by an infection due to the use of inadequate lens solutions, contact the contact solution lawyers of Williams Kherkher at 1-866-950-9000 to discuss your case and to determine your legal options.
