Amazon has removed seven eye-drop products from its site after the FDA sent a warning letter saying the products were not approved, according to the Washington Post.

The letter, dated Nov. 13, says the FDA was concerned about Amazon’s distribution of the products, as they pose a potential threat to public health because they are administered through the eyes.

The products that the FDA listed are:

  • Similasan Pink Eye Relief

  • The Goodbye Company Pink Eye

  • Can-C Eye Drops

  • Optique 1 Eye Drops

  • OcluMed Eye Drops

  • TRP Natural Eye Floaters Relief

  • Manzanilla Sophia Chamomile Herbal Eye Drops

In October, the FDA announced a recall of 26 different types of eye drops, all of which could be found in stores, such as CVS, Rite Aid, and Target.
