Reason for recall

The interior of the product may not be sterilized to the appropriate Sterility Assurance Level when following the reprocessing instructions in the Instructions for Use.

A sterility recall means a product that must be sterile, such as an injection or eye drop, may be contaminated. Using a non-sterile product can cause serious infection.
