ACUVUE VITA BRAND CONTACT LENSES

Reason

Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. is voluntarily recalling one lot of ACUVUE® VITA® Brand Diagnostic Contact Lenses (Lot B00WWWL) due to the potential for a limited number of individual contact lens packages to have an incomplete packaging seal, which could potentially cause leakage of lens packing solution. There is also a risk that the contact lens and packing solution may become unsterile. Lenses from non-sterile packaging may pose a risk for infection if inserted into the eye.
