"FDA Issues Recall for Eye Products Sold at Walmart and CVS Over Infection Risk"

TL;DR Summary
Eye ointment products sold at Walmart and CVS are being recalled due to a potential risk of infection, as federal health officials found a "lack of sterility assurance" at the manufacturing facility. The impacted products, sold under the brand names Equate, CVS Health, and AACE Pharmaceuticals, could pose a risk of eye infections or related harm, and consumers are advised to stop using them and return the products. This recall follows several others in the past year due to unsanitary conditions at manufacturing facilities, prompting warnings from the FDA to avoid certain eye products under various brands.
