Lacrimedics recalls sterile lacrimal plugs for dry eye treatment due to potential seal integrity issues that could compromise sterility. Affected models include HP3, HP5, and HP7 sizes with specific batch numbers.
The sterile pouch seal may contain channels that could affect the seal integrity and potentially compromise sterility.
Lacrimedics is recalling sterile lacrimal plugs for dry eye treatment because the pouch seal might have channels that could break the seal and make the product unsafe. This could lead to infections if the plugs are not properly sterile.
The sterile pouch seal may have channels that could weaken the seal over time. This might allow contamination, making the plugs no longer sterile and increasing the risk of eye infections.
People who have received the recalled lacrimal plugs for dry eye treatment, especially those using the HP3, HP5, or HP7 models with the listed batch numbers. Those with dry eye conditions are most at risk.
Check the product label for the model (HP3, HP5, or HP7) and batch numbers listed in the recall notice. The plugs are for dry eye treatment and require a prescription.
