Contact Lens Wearers: Safety Recall Notice

For those of you who wear contact lenses or have members of the family that wear contact lenses, please be aware that a safety recall notice was issued by Advanced Medical Optics (AMO) to stop using AMO Complete MoisturePlus contact lens solution.

There was a high risk of eye infection among users of the product so AMO decided to remove the product completely from market as a preventative measure.

Users of this product are advised to discontinue use of AMO Complete MoisturePlus and call 1-888-899-9183 or visit www.amo-inc.com for additional information regarding this recall and how to return the product.

Complete details about this recall can be found here in this email sent to Eye Care Professionals.

You might recall in April 2006, Bausch & Lomb faced a PR nightmare by waiting too long to react and issue a safety recall notice for their ReNu with MosturLoc product. At least AMO is taking swift action to pull their product from market.
