The recall is of Bausch + Lomb’s Hydro + Peroxide Solution (360ml), an all-in-one solution for use with soft and silicon hydrogel contact lenses.
The company have found a problem where residual peroxide could remain in the lens case after the neutralisation process. This could result in burning/stinging, irritation, red eye and in rare circumstances other more serious health consequences.
The recall affects all batch codes of the product, which should not be used.
