Bausch & Lomb Suspended Shipping of ReNu MoistureLoc Brand Contact Lens Solution
Medical optic giant Bausch & Lomb recently suspended all shipping of the ReNu MoistureLoc brand contact lens solution in the United States.
Rochester, NY (PRWEB) April 14, 2006
Medical optic giant Bausch & Lomb recently suspended all shipping of the ReNu MoistureLoc brand contact lens solution in the U. S. after the product was linked to a serious eye infection. This massive halt was in response to an alert to the FDA by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention of reports of a fungal infection in ReNu MoistureLoc users that could potentially lead to devastating vision problems, including blindness.
Fungal eye infections can cause tremendous damage that can manifest virtually without warning. The Fusarium bacteria can cause an infection of the cornea, the delicate tissue that covers the pupil of the eye. Eye infections can cause irritation, obscure vision, and in some tragic cases, lead to permanent blindness.
The alert centered around 109 cases of fungal infection in 17 states to 26 people who used ReNu MoistureLoc brand contact lens solution. These agencies considered this link statistically significant, and Bausch & Lomb must now consider its legal options in the face of mounting investigations and negative publicity.
Powerful companies like Bausch & Lomb have extensive resources to devote towards litigation, and it takes extensive experience and aggressive skill to force them to take responsibility. The attorneys at Steigerwalt & Associates are currently investigating these reports of dangerous fungal eye infections and want to help victims of the ReNu MoistureLoc brand contact lens solution and their families fight for what they deserve.
