Lighthouse For The Blind Recalls First Aid Kits Due to Sterility Labeling
Lighthouse For The Blind is recalling 635 Type I First Aid Kits because the iodine ampule labeling incorrectly implies the entire package is sterile.
What this means for you
Cosmetic or documentation issue. No expected health impact, but the manufacturer is correcting the affected products.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class III, which indicates the product is not likely to cause adverse health consequences. The issue is a labeling error regarding sterility claims rather than a contamination or functional defect.
Plain-English summary
Lighthouse For The Blind is recalling 635 Type I First Aid Kits (Kit Number: 2113110) due to a labeling error on the included iodine 10% Ampule. The kits were distributed nationwide, including DC and 34 states, between January 12, 2010, and March 4, 2013.
The recall was initiated because the labeling on the iodine 10% Ampule states that the contents of the package are sterile. This claim does not clarify that the sterility applies only to the applicator, not the antiseptic solution. The solution is a cutaneous disinfectant and is not sterile.
Consumers who possess these kits should stop using the iodine ampules and contact Lighthouse For The Blind for instructions on how to return the product.
