CooperVision Recalls Pro Clear 1 Day Sphere Contact Lenses for Incorrect Expiry Dates

CooperVision is recalling 153 cartons of Pro Clear 1 Day Sphere contact lenses because the outer cartons display incorrect expiration dates, although the inner blisters are correct.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: This is a Class II recall involving a labeling error (incorrect expiration date on the secondary package) where the primary package is correct, fitting the criteria for minor labeling errors or low-risk issues.

CooperVision Inc. is recalling 153 cartons of Pro Clear(R) 1 day Sphere (o mafilcon A) daily disposable contact lenses. The recall involves specific lots where the secondary package (carton) was labeled with incorrect expiration dates. The primary package (blister) is marked with the correct expiration date.
