A popular household brand of eye drops has been recalled after a ‘potentially life-threatening’ fungal contamination was discovered.
Alcon Laboratories told users on December 21 to ‘immediately’ stop using Systane Lubricant Eye Drops from one lot after a consumer complaint.
Fungal contamination in eye drops can ‘potentially’ lead to ‘vision-threatening’ eye infections, according to the US Federal Drug Administration (FDA).
