As initially reported by a patient, she felt ongoing discomfort with contact lens wear starting in (b)(6) 2016.
In (b)(6) 2016, the patient experienced eye redness and itching.
The patient sought medical attention with three different eye care providers (ecp).
The patient was diagnosed with "small ulcers in the eye" and resumed contact lens wear after the ecp stated that her eyes were "cured.
" the patient experienced ongoing itchiness after resuming contact lens wear, for which she was treated for an infection; the patient was advised to discontinue contact lens wear for three days during this time.
Upon resuming contact lens wear in (b)(6), the patient experienced similar symptoms, inclusive of foreign body sensation.
At that time, her ecp advised her to discontinue use of the complaint product, suggesting that the symptoms could be attributed to a lack of oxygenation from contact lens wear.
The events have resolved, with patient not wearing contact lenses.
Further information received from the patient clarified that the following medications were prescribed: anti-inflammatory eye drops, antibiotic eye drops, and a steroid eye drop (the dosages and treatment dates of the medications were not specified).
Additional information has been requested but not received.
