MoisturePlus: AMO, FDA Encouraging Consumers to Dispose of Evidence?

If you have a container of Advanced Medical Optics' Complete Moisture Plus, should you throw it away? Both AMO and the Food and Drug Administration recommend that consumers discard any unused Complete Moisture Plus solution that they still have. However, this action may be of enormous benefit to AMO; consumers essentially are destroying any evidence that they may have had that the contact solution was contaminated.

AMO Urges Consumers to Dispose of Evidence

Some reports indicate that AMO may have been aware of the problems with their solution for two years before they did anything to warn the public. Consumers who believe they have been seriously injured by using Moisture Plus may be well advised to save the solution as evidence.
