These consumers lodged complaints of serious injuries that required immediate medical attention. Three suffered permanent vision loss, after a lid struck them in their eyes.<\/p>\n<p>The affected lids were made without center pressure-relief valves. Consequently, gas builds up in the container in a way that potentially makes the lid dislodge with force.<\/p>\n<p>The products were sold nationwide at major retail stores and their websites and on Thermos.com, from March 2008, through July 2024.
