CooperVision steps up contact lens recall effort

Eye care company CooperVision has issued another announcement of its recall of 600,000 Avaira Toric contact lenses. The company first announced a recall in August after the lenses were linked to pain, red eye and blurred vision. Earlier this week, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said “a larger effort was needed to alert consumers to the defective products, which contain a residue caused by a manufacturing problem.” https://yourlife.usatoday.com/health/story/2011-10-13/CooperVision-steps-up-contact-lens-recall-effort/50752418/1
