Our Oxervate Lawsuits Attorney Will Determine Your Eligibility to Join Our Mass Tort
In a mass tort lawsuit, multiple plaintiffs (injured parties) pursue compensation from the same defendant (at-fault party). To qualify for our Oxervate mass tort claim, you must meet the following conditions:
- A doctor prescribed Oxervate to treat a condition called neurotrophic keratitis
- You later received a diagnosis of corneal damage related to your Oxervate use
Our investigation will also establish the manufacturer’s negligence by proving its four elements—duty of care, breach of duty, causation, and damages. Our Oxervate lawsuit lawyers will prove these elements and build the strongest case for you. Please find out how during a free review from one of our consultation team members.

How Oxervate May Have Damaged Your Visual Health
Mayo Clinic data describes Oxervate as a prescription eye drop that treats neurotrophic keratitis—a disease affecting the corneas. It stimulates nerve cells to foster healing. However, Oxervate is not without its risks. Minor risks include decreased vision, discomfort, irritation, redness, and swelling.
More severe (and undisclosed) side effects include the following:
- Corneal perforation
- Corneal deposits
- Eye infections
- Inflammation
If you experienced one of the undisclosed side effects, we will work with your medical team to prove their cause and fight for compensation from the drug’s manufacturers.
Financial Compensation Our Oxervate Lawsuit Lawyers Pursue for Injured Clients
Every participant in a mass tort claim seeks individual damages. We collect bills, receipts, expert opinions, and more supporting evidence to ensure we accurately assess your damages in your request.
The damages we work to recover on your behalf might include:
- Medical expenses: Current and future treatment costs, including hospital stays, additional medications, and other medical expenses related to your claim.
- Lost income: Current and future lost wages due to vision damage, including your reduced ability to earn wages in the future.
- Pain and suffering: Compensation for the physical, emotional, and mental discomfort of your initial use of Oxervate and resulting injury and recovery.
- Loss of enjoyment: Compensation for the changes your damaged eyesight imposes on your previous and preferred lifestyle.
If warranted, our mass torts lawyers might also be able to request punitive damages on your behalf. Courts typically award them in cases of egregious wrongdoing. While juries rarely award these damages, we will pursue them if your case meets the required legal parameters.
How the Statutes of Limitations Affect Oxervate Mass Torts Lawsuits
You have limited time to file a product liability lawsuit. If you don’t file your lawsuit within the allotted time, the court could prohibit you from filing it. This action could leave you with no legal recourse to compel the drug manufacturer to compensate you.
We will interpret the filing deadline for you since it can be hard to pinpoint the exact date you were harmed. Moreover, the filing deadline can fluctuate for many other reasons. So, leave it to us. Our mass torts attorneys can help you avoid the consequences of an expired statute of limitations by filing your lawsuit on time.
