Coopervision discontinues solution

​Synergi contact lens solution to be phased out by December

Synergi contact lens solution will be phased out of the market by December, its producer Coopervision has announced.

The company said despite being a trusted and effective product, it felt that a forthcoming research paper would affect its reputation and sales. ‘Unfortunately, the cost and time to recover that reputation does not justify continued production,’ said a company statement.

The company refused to comment on the nature of the research paper or its data because it was still in the process of being submitted to a peer-reviewed journal. However, it reiterated that the solution could be used with complete confidence.
