What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a medical device where a sterility defect poses a risk of harm (infection), but the source text does not report any specific illnesses or injuries, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products without reported injury.

Plain-English summary

Beaver-Visitec International Inc. is recalling 214 BVI Custom Eyes Ophthalmic Procedure Kits. The recall is due to a defect in the Devon Light Glove component (Part Number: 584671), which may contain holes or slits that compromise the sterility of the product.
