Contact lenses lack sterility assurance.
Alden Optical is recalling their HP59 Toric Daily Wear Soft Contact Lenses because they lack sterility assurance. This means the lenses could cause infections if not properly sterilized, putting users at risk of eye infections.
The contact lenses lack sterility assurance, meaning they may not be properly sterilized. This can lead to eye infections if the lenses are not handled or cleaned correctly. The risk is primarily for users who do not follow proper hygiene practices.
People who own or use Alden HP59 Toric Daily Wear Soft Contact Lenses are affected. Those with sensitive eyes or who use the lenses frequently are at higher risk of infection.
Check for the catalog number AOHPT59 on the lens packaging. The product is intended for daily wear correction of vision in people with refractive errors.
Ensure the contact lenses are properly sterilized before use to reduce infection risk.
The recall states the lenses lack sterility assurance, so they may not be safe for use without proper sterilization.
