The eye infection linked to Moisture Plus is known as Acanthamoeba Keratitis. This condition is characterized as being an infection of the eye caused by small waterborne bacteria. Symptoms include redness, pain, excessive tears, discharge, and blurry or double vision. Those who leave the condition untreated can permanently scar their corneas, necessitating a corneal implant or leaving themselves permanently blinded.
