THE Therapeutic Goods
Administration is publicising an
urgent consumer-level recall of
Avaira Toric Contact Lenses.
Specific lots of the contact lenses
are being recalled by the sponsor
CooperVision Australia Pty Ltd,
after the company received
complaints of “temporary hazy or
blurry vision and discomfort from
wearers”.
The recall is part of a global
voluntary recall of specific lots of
the product, after laboratory tests
found the symptoms were caused
by a small amount of residue on
the lenses.
In all reported cases so far the
symptoms were temporary and
reversed after the contact lenses
were removed, with no reports of
permanent eye damage.
The CooperVision website at
www.coopervision.com has details
of the specific lot numbers affected
and consumers concerned about
the products can also call the
company’s customer service line on
