Californian Files Class Action Suit Against Contact Lens Solution Manufacturer for False Advertising

December 22, 2008

Southern California-based Advanced Medical Optics, Inc. ("AMO") was named as the defendant in a consumer fraud and false advertising class action complaint charging that consumers have been misled into purchasing a brand-name product.

Plaintiff Maria Ruiz brought the complaint on behalf of all California consumers who purchased AMO's Complete Multipurpose Solution Easy Rub Formula ("Easy Rub").

The complaint alleges AMO promoted Easy Rub as a "new" and "unique" contact lens solution when, in fact, it was identical to a formula AMO had been producing for resale by retail giant Costco which Costco sold for less than Easy Rub. Read the full Press Release.
