Contact Solution Recall Blog

The FDA is focusing on contact lens safety, including changing safety recommendations. They’re also planning on releasing information for how consumers can avoid dangerous eye infections.

According to the FDA, it is possible to get nasty eye infections if the rules aren’t followed. According to eye doctors, it doesn’t take much to create a problem. Germs can build up on lenses and in the eye when users leave their lenses in too long, handle them improperly, or try to stretch cleaning solution by adding new solution to old, used solution.

In an effort to ensure contact lens solutions are safe, the FDA is considering strengthening its standards for product testing. They’re looking at safety standards due to the trend in recent years of eye infection outbreaks.
