“It takes courage to be the first country to draw the link between eye infection and the product. SNEC’s reputation was at risk; MOH and…. Singapore’s reputation was also at stake.”
(Health Minister, Khaw Boon Wan, applauding the SNEC team for drawing a link between rising numbers of fungal corneal infections and Bausch and Lomb’s ReNu Moistureloc contact lens solution)
The Straits Times, 11 July 2006 |

|
| |
The first report to strongly associate the problem with MoistureLoc came from Singapore on Feb. 17, after the Singapore National Eye Center noticed a cluster of seven cases the month before. Officials viewed records back to the preceding May and found that the Bausch product had been involved in 18 of 19 cases that were linked to lens use.
