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. A sterility defect in an intraocular injection product represents a significant potential for serious harm, as contamination could cause sight-threatening intraocular infections. Although no illnesses or injuries are reported in the source text, the inherent risk of a non-sterile injectable drug intended for the eye warrants a Severe classification under the Class II criterion.
