Pharmedica USA is recalling its Purely Soothing 15% MSM eye drops, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The recall notice warns consumers that the product is non-sterile, meaning it may contain germs and bacteria, and that using it might permanently damage their retina. It is the third over-the-counter eye drop brand to be recalled this year.

Pharmedica has advised customers to immediately stop using its product, which it says can cause blindness. People who bought the product are encouraged to return it for a refund.
