Law360, New York (June 05, 2008, 12:00 AM ET) -- Responding to last year's scare over contact lens cleaners causing users to suffer potentially blinding infections, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is now considering a series of new regulations that would affect how contact lens products are tested and labeled.
The FDA said that it would convene a panel of experts on June 10 to “discuss general issues” with various lens cleaners and whether new testing or package labeling requirements should be imposed on the industry.
