Every homeopathic eye drop should be pulled off the market, FDA says
Eye drops are uniquely risky because the eye is an immune-privileged site.

@arstechnica i use homeopathic before the others. I always do better, feel better and get better results. I am a doctor's daughter and understand Western medicine. Maybe I have been lucky.

Fixed it for you.
Homeopathy is a con and not even a good one. It relies solely on magical thinking people to not even look what it is because even they would recoil at the sheer ridiculousness of its bs. It's ripping off a lot of people and causing actual harm when they use it instead of something actually capable of doing something.
@arstechnica
Weird how the FDA is fine with other fraudulent products on the shelves, but it's illegal for me to throw all homeopathic "medicines" in a pile and torch them while at the store.
Also medicines that work are restricted because *gasp* someone might make them into recreational drugs!
@arstechnica I seem to recall seeing something about placebo actually being somewhat viable. I guess homeopathy has that going for it.
@arstechnica This is not at all horrifying.
