Eyedrops from EzriCare and Delsam Phama were recalled ....

As of March 14, a reported 68 patients in 16 states have been infected with this 'rare strain' of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, according to an update by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Global Pharma Healthcare recalled its Artificial Tears Lubricant Eye Drops that were distributed by EzriCare and Delsam Pharma last month. The drops had been sold at drug stores across the country, including Walmart, Target, and CVS, and on Amazon, though the products have since been pulled.

I might need that surgery one day so hopefully what they recommend will not be harmful....good to know “refresh tears” has stood the test of time.

I was also thinking that as i read the article.....3 deaths from eye drops and they do a recall. But with Covid shots it's everybody line up!

[caww]

Just twice in my life I’ve had to use eyedrops as I had no alternative. So I understand not wanting to put anything in your eyes.

Maybe just saline solution would be helpful.

"I might need that surgery one day "

The surgery was a piece of cake for me. I initially had some apprehensions, but they give you something to relax you, and the time goes quite quickly. All I saw was bright colored lights while he was doing the laser surgery, and felt nothing. The only inconvenience is the two weeks in between the surgeries. I simply covered the right lens on my glasses so I could still watch TV and read when I wanted to. I now have 20/20 in both eyes, but do have to wear glasses with progressive lenses for reading and viewing the computer screen. No big deal because I've worn glasses since I was 12. I'm 75 now. I guess there is an option to get prescription lenses inserted, but I can't imagine the cost. The biggest change was noticing how bright everything was. I always blamed the fluorescent lighting in my apartment for the brown sepia tone everything had. After I had my first eye done, I couldn't believe that it had actually been my eyes that had caused the problem. The only bad thing is that now I see cobwebs I have to clean, and more facial wrinkles than I thought I had.

Thank you for your story.

You’re welcome. There was a thread here a few weeks before I had my surgery. One Freeper commented that if during the surgery, he saw that needle coming toward him, he’d jump up and run away. Someone who’d already had the surgery said not to worry, because they give you an IV to relax you to the point where you don’t even care what they’re doing. And they were right.

Wait only 3 dead and the CDC recalls? But the vax, get your vax boosters 24/7.

Well,strictly speaking there were survivors of the camps.Most were in bad shape....many were in very bad shape but at least some were able to "stumble".

But,of course,you know that I was speaking in extremes only to make a point.

I just had my first cataract surgery last Wednesday. Like you said, between the bright light and sedation you have no clue what is going on.

The difference is astounding. I can’t wait for the other surgery to be done. 3 hours after the procedure I was able to read white background websites again without reading glasses.

"I just had my first cataract surgery last Wednesday."

Congratulations, and good luck with your next surgery. It really is amazing the difference in your vision once you have it done.
