FDA is revising the guidance document that specifically addresses the labeling and directions for use of contact lens care products and solutions.Among the panel's recommendations on labeling and directions for use:Contact lens solution manufacturers should include a discard date on their products, in addition to the usual expiration date. Consumers should never use expired products. The discard date is the date the solution should be thrown out after opening. And, Contact lens wearers should rub and rinse their lenses for added effectiveness of cleaning and disinfection. This recommendation is consistent with advice from the American Optometric Association and the American Academy of Ophthalmology. To see more details visit, www.webmd.com
