The Shanghai Food and Drug Administration said all US-made ReNu MoistureLoc contact lens solution has been removed from stores across the city while US authorities are reportedly investigating a ReNu MultiPlus solution made by Bausch & Lomb.

About 98 percent of ReNu MoistureLoc sold on the Chinese mainland is made in Beijing. The remainder is imported from the United States. SFDA said authorities ordered stores to pull the product in mid April. Customers can exchange US-made solution with domestically-made products.

Bausch & Lomb China claimed all ReNu MultiPlus solution sold on the mainland is produced domestically and people need not be anxious about the investigation in the United States.
