The FDA is warning people to stop using certain brands of eyedrops due to fungal and bacterial contamination, which can pose a risk to consumers and potentially lead to serious vision-threatening infections.
The FDA has issued a voluntary recall on certain eye drop brands, including Dr. Berne's products, due to fungal and bacterial contamination, which could potentially result in serious vision-threatening infections.
Certain eye drops, including MSM DROPS 5%,15% Solution, Organic Castor Oil Eye Drops, and MSM MIST 15% Solution, are being recalled due to contamination with bacteria and fungi, which could potentially cause vision-threatening and life-threatening infections.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has warned companies, including CVS and Walgreens, to stop selling unapproved and potentially dangerous eye drop products due to manufacturing and marketing violations, as well as concerns about the inclusion of silver compounds, which can cause permanent blue discoloration of the skin and eyes with long-term use.
Recent recalls and warnings regarding eye health products have raised concerns about their safety, with some products being illegally marketed and contaminated, leading eye experts to advise caution and consultation with a healthcare professional to ensure proper vetting and selection of eye drops and other eye care products.
