What this means for you
Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The FDA classified this recall as Class II. According to the severity rubric, an FDA Class II recall involving a sterile ophthalmic product (where sterility failure implies significant risk of infection/injury) maps to a score of 4 (Severe), as it exceeds the threshold for 'High' (which typically applies to theoretical risks or specific pathogens without reported illness) and aligns with the 'significant injury' potential of non-sterile eye drops.
