A contaminated eye drop has been found to be antibiotic resistant, causing blindness, and some users had their eyeball removed.
An anti-resistant bacteria discovered in multiple recalled eye drops distributed by EzriCare and Delsam Pharma has caused the death of three individuals, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The eyedrops were manufactured under Global Pharma Healthcare and were recalled in February.
Per the CDC, they were contaminated with a rare Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria.
The EzriCare Artificial Tears lubricant, an over-the-counter product packaged in multidose bottles, was the brand most regularly linked to the infection cases.
