Manufacturer Narrative

This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation and device evaluation.The device was returned to olympus for inspection, and the reported distorted image issue was not confirmed.However, the objective lens was displaced.Consequently, this caused an unclear image.A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.It has been over 1 year since the subject device was manufactured.Based on the results of the investigation, the reported distorted image was not confirmed.However, the displaced lens (which caused the unclear image) was likely due to excessive force by the user.This supplemental report includes a correction to b3, b5, and g2 to provide information that was inadvertently not included in the initial medwatch.An update has been made to d9 and h3.Also, information has been added to h4.Olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
