Complete Moisture Plus contact lens solution is a multipurpose or "all-in-one" contact solution. It was manufactured by Advanced Medical Optics and used by contact lens wearers across the United States. The recalled contact solution was used for both cleaning and storing soft contact lenses. Prior to the Moisture Plus recall the product had been on the market for several years.
According to recent studies, multipurpose contact solutions like Complete Moisture Plus may be less likely to kill dangerous bacteria compared to peroxide-based cleaners. The danger with the Complete Moisture solution is the increased risk of developing the eye infection Acanthamoeba keratitis (AK). AK primarily affects otherwise healthy people, most of whom wear contact lenses. In the United States, an estimated 85% of cases occur in contact lens users.
On May 25, 2007, Advanced Medical Optics (AMO) issued a press release announcing the voluntary recall of its Complete® MoisturePLUSTM Multi-purpose Contact Lens Solution from the market.
AMO sent information on this recall to corporate accounts and eye care professionals.
If you or a loved one have experienced the serious eye infection Acanthamoeba after using Complete Moisture Plus contact lens solution or have had a cornea transplant you may have a claim against the manufacturer due to the contact lens solution recall.
