Contact lens solution recalled due to mysterious eye infections

Contact lens wearers, heads up: the CDC has issued a warning about AMO Complete Moisture Plus Multi-Purpose Solution, which is used for cleaning and storing soft contact lenses. Apparently the solution has been linked with the painful and potentially blinding eye infection called Acanthamoeba keratitis.The makers of the lens cleaner, Advanced Medical Optics Inc., has issued a voluntary recall and is recommending that people throw the product away along with the storage case and their current contact lenses (lets hope they're disposable and you haven't just busted out a new 30 day pair!).

It's not immediately clear right now how and why this product is connected to the spike in eye infection cases, but the FDA will be looking into it.
