As an optometrist, the recent recall of several over-the-counter eye drops by AvKARE due to potential sterility issues raises a significant concern for patient safety. We always emphasize the importance of using sterile products for the eyes to prevent infections and other complications. AvKare products are not a brand that Dr. Olson recommends in office, however it may be one that you or someone you know has purchased over the counter. Patients who have been using the affected solutions should immediately discontinue their use and follow the instructions provided on the AvKARE website for returns and refunds. It's crucial to be vigilant about product recalls and to prioritize the health and safety of your eyes. If you experience any discomfort or signs of infection, please consult your eye doctor immediately.
