Be careful when buying contacts
From Consumer Affairs:Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott has filed lawsuits against two San Antonio businesses that have dispensed contact lenses to consumers without prescriptions.
The suits request an injunction to halt their illegal practices, which, in the case of one business, New Look Cosmetics, resulted in at least one eye injury to a person, resulting in temporary vision impairment.
New Look Cosmetics and its owner, Florencio Landin Jr., and Main Optical and its owners, Yanett Salinas and Hector Salinas Gomez are named in the suits. Both operated from local flea markets illegally, and both were allegedly placing consumers at risk for eye injury by selling contact lenses without obtaining the proper prescriptions from eye doctors.
