The Food and Drug Administration announced the recall of millions of bottles of eye drops because they may contain a foreign substance.
The agency classified the recall as a Class II, meaning it is "a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote."
The eye drops are used “to treat non-infectious eye allergies and inflammation, including damage caused by chemical and thermal burns,” the Mayo Clinic said.
The prescription eye drops came in three sizes: 5 mL (NDC 70748-332-02), 10 mL (NDC 70748-332-03) and 15 mL (NDC 70748-332-04).

Recalled medicine ping!
Tainted eyedrops — usually from overseas manufacturers— are a recurring problem. My sister lost sight in one eye after a single use of OTC eyedrops imported from India.
Both recalls are from India................Hmmmm, I wonder if there’s a connection?............🤔

The connection is Indians should stay in their IT swim lane and stay the heck out if the pharmaceutical industry!
The parts of Indi I have been to were FILTHY DIRTY! One bathroom for one apartment BUILDING!
Very strange that they haven’t reported the analysis of what the “foreign substance” is. Was it visible to naked eye? Was it a specific color? Chemical? Biological?
I would guess that some kind of analysis had to be done.
