Side effects may include blindness (ReNu drops)

[LordJezo]

<!--startclickprintexclude--><!--endclickprintexclude-->Bausch &amp; Lomb has stopped shipping its ReNu brand contact lens
solution after a number of people using the product reported getting a
serious eye infection, the Food and Drug Administration said Monday.

The FDA said that 109 cases of the rare but serious infection that may
cause loss of vision had been reported to the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) from 17 U.S. states. But the agency said
during a conference call that it was not aware of a link between the
infection and specific products.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://money.cnn.com/2006/04/10/news/companies/bausch.reut/index.htm" target="_blank">Story&nbsp;</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Hardcore.&nbsp;</p>

Saw this story on the news last night and it freaked me out.&nbsp; I've been wearing contacts for about 15 years and change lens solutions frequently.&nbsp; I don't happen to be using ReNu right now but geez, that freaks me out!

Uh, not only do I use ReNu, but it's also the little bottle I have sitting here for rewettening.&nbsp; That's messed up.&nbsp; Now I gotta find a new solution to use.&nbsp; Hopefully the non-rubbing kind.<br />
