The first aceclidine-based eye drop to improve near vision in adults with presbyopia, which affects more than 100 million adults in the US alone, has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and will be available within three months.
Tend to agree. The FDA seems to have been too easily influenced by business interests in recent years. Until now FDA approval was like a gold standard in safety but I think I trust the EU to make these kinds of decisions now. In general the EU now seems to be first to ban chemicals on the basis of safety. It’s possible they are overly strict but I prefer too strict over too lax when it comes to things like this.
