The new MPDF dropper has allowed Regener-Eyes to recall eye drops under the guise of exchanging them for a safer bottle. However, an MDPF dropper will not protect consumers from serious harm due to bacteria or fungus in eye drops prior to first use. Regenerative Processing Plant has been silent regarding its unresolved CGMP violations.
The Dry Eye Foundation continues to recommend against the use of Regener-Eyes Lite and Regener-Eyes Pro, regardless of bottle type or manufacture date.
