If you keep eye drops at home, now is a good time to check the bottle in your medicine cabinet. Prestige Brands Holdings is voluntarily recalling 39,060 bottles of Clear Eyes Maximum Itchy Eye Relief because the manufacturer cannot guarantee the product’s sterility, raising concerns about possible contamination.
The recall applies to a specific batch of the eye drops, not the entire Clear Eyes product line. Consumers should check their bottles carefully to determine whether they are affected.
Look for the following product details:
- Clear Eyes Maximum Itchy Eye Relief
- Bottle size: 0.5 oz (15 mL)
- Lot number: 2552A
- Expiration date: September 30, 2027
If your bottle matches all of these details, it may be part of the recall.
What Does the Recall Mean for Consumers?
The FDA has designated this a Class II recall, a category used when a product may cause temporary or medically reversible health effects. Although the possibility of serious harm is considered remote, the potential sterility issue means affected products should not be used. As of the reported recall information, no adverse reactions have been reported.
What Should You Do If You Have This Product?
Consumers who have the affected eye drops should stop using them and return the bottle to the retailer where it was purchased for a refund. Be sure to verify the lot number and expiration date before taking action, since other Clear Eyes products are not included in this specific recall.
