PROVIDENCE, R.I.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 4, 2006--The Mason Law Firm, P.C. and The Law Offices Of Peter N. Wasylyk announced that late yesterday they have filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of all persons in the United States who used ReNu with MoistureLoc(TM) solution, manufactured by Bausch & Lomb, Inc. The suit, Barbara M. Cavallaro, et al v. Bausch & Lomb, Inc., was filed in United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island. (Case number 06-205-S)
 

 
On April 13, 2006, Bausch & Lomb, Inc. advised consumers to switch to another lens care solution and asked all retailers to remove ReNu with MoistureLoc(TM) from their shelves. This action came after the United States Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") and the United States Centers for Disease Control ("CDC") issued public health warnings on April 10, 2006, concerning serious fungal infections, such as fusarium keratitis, associated with contact lens solution use. The CDC stated that it had interviewed 30 patients suspected of having fusarium keratitis. Of those 30 patients, 28 wore soft contact lenses and 26 used Bausch & Lomb ReNu contact lens solution in the month prior to the fungal infection diagnosis.
