It was reported that a preloaded monofocal intraocular lens (iol) had a scratch and stayed in patient's operative eye.It was reported they think it might be associated with the cartridge of the inserter possibly scratching the periphery of the lens.Through follow up it was learned that the scratch was located on the outer edge of the optic, not within the visual field.Therefore, the iol remains implanted as the location of the scratch does not affect the vision of the patient.There was no patient injury, nor, no medical/surgical intervention outside of the standard of care was required.No other information was provided.
