Just a CP Public Service announcement. I'm sure more than a few of us wear contacts.... a notable recall was issued recently.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Monday that public health officials in 17 states were investigating 109 cases of Fusarium keratitis, a rare fungal infection that damages the cornea.
Eight patients had to undergo corneal transplants.
After that announcement, Bausch & Lomb suspended all U.S. shipments of its ReNu with MoistureLoc lens-care solution made at its plant in Greenville, South Carolina, but did not recommend its use be stopped.

Yikes, I used this stuff before. What makes matters worse is that CIBA has also had production problems taking SoloCare, Clear Care, and a few other brands off the market. There's not much else left!
