A woman filed a lawsuit claiming her eye had to be removed due to 'defective' lenses made by Hubble Contacts
A New Mexico woman has filed a complaint alleging she was sold defective contact lenses that led to the loss of her eye., Stephanie Guarisco said contacts she bought from Hubble Contacts caused her severe pain within weeks of using them in 2020.
According to the complaint, when she received the lenses in January 2020 they lacked instructions for removal, insertion, or cleaning. She stopped wearing them in July that year, per the suit. "Hubble contact lenses were unsafe, defective, and inherently dangerous in that the contact lenses were subject to a high rate of eye infections and corneal damage during normal and customary use," the complaint stated.
