Users of two types of eye drops are being warned to stop using them because the FDA said they may contain bacterial and fungal contamination.
The Food and Drug Administration urged consumers to immediately stop using Dr. Berne’s MSM Drops 5% Solution and LightEyez MSM Eye Drops – Eye Repair.
Despite that, the FDA warned that using the potentially contaminated eye drops"could result in minor to serious vision-threatening infection which could possibly progress to a life-threatening infection."The FDA said that Dr. Berne's agreed to a recall of its products. LightEyez has not responded to the FDA's recall request. The FDA noted that both of the eye drops contain methylsulfonylmethane, which is unapproved in the U.S. for ophthalmic use.
