Sites Set on Bausch & Lomb

As the days pass, the news continues to get worse for Bausch & Lomb.  Initially, the company asked consumers to stop using one of their products, ReNu with MoistureLoc.  In the intervening weeks, company execs tried to intimate that if there was a problem at all, it was restricted to the one product.  Now that the CDC report comes out we know otherwise.  Let’s take a look a the CDC numbers:

Fusarium Keratitis Outbreak among contact users:

56 confirmed cases
                                                                          32 – B & L ReNu with Moisture Loc
