Stephanie Guarisco claimed in a lawsuit that an eye had to be removed due to her Hubble contacts. She accused the company of selling "unsafe, defective" contact lenses that left her in severe pain. A New Mexico woman has filed a complaint alleging she was sold defective contact lenses that led to the loss of her eye. Guarisco is suing Vision Path, Hubble Contacts' parent company, for consumer fraud and negligence. "Hubble contact lenses were unsafe, defective, and inherently dangerous in that the contact lenses were subject to a high rate of eye infections and corneal damage during normal and customary use," the complaint stated.
