Recall alert: 2.5M bottles of eye drops recalled for foreign substance
actionnewsjax.com/news ^ | July 10, 2026 | Natalie Dreier, Cox

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).

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.

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.
