The Problem with EzriCare Eyedrops
When you use eyedrops or any other eye product, you trust the product to help, and not hurt, your eye health. But the primary issue with eyedrops is the significant chance of the product or the dropper itself transmitting harmful pathogens into the body through the eyes.
This is exactly what has recently occurred with EzriCare eyedrops. Unfortunately, countless victims have experienced serious eye infections and other health complications after using this product.
As a result of so many infections, the CDC has released statements urging individuals to stop using and doctors to stop recommending these eye drops.
How Did EzriCare Eyedrops Become Contaminated?
At this point in time, as frustrating as it may be, the answer to this question is unclear. The CDC has performed extensive testing on eyedrop bottles obtained from infected victims as well as non-infected users. The results of these tests came back positive for pseudomonas aeruginosa, although it is still a question as to how the product became contaminated in the first place.
The results of the CDC's tests did, however, establish the causal link between using EzriDrops and the infections and other medical issues consumers were experiencing. The contamination likely occurred during the manufacturing process.
If you've used artificial tears distributed by EzriCare, Delsam Pharma, Pharmedica, or Aru Pharma and have experienced medical issues like those previously mentioned, you could have a valid claim for compensation.
