Event Description
|
It was initially reported that there were two smart load intraocular lenses that could not be implanted as they both were stuck.Possibly the cartridge(s) were defective, and one lens had a missing haptic (haptic was not there).The two devices were reported at the same time for the same patient.Through follow up it was confirmed the injector (customer is referring to the cartridge), got stuck and the lenses could not be implanted.Because of the lenses being stuck, one lens had a missing haptic and was taken out (not fully delivered, due to being stuck).It is unknown which of the two identified lenses had the missing haptic issue.This report captures the event for one of the two reported lenses.A separate report is being submitted for the other reported lens.No further information is available.

Additional information: section d9.Device available for evaluation? yes returned to manufacturer on: 16 may 2022 section h3.Device evaluated by manufacturer? yes device evaluation: the dk9000 unfolder was received within a sterilization pouch.The plunger rod was observed to be bent.How and when this damage was introduced cannot be determined.The material of the pushrod is titanium, which would need to be subjected to an impact or force that would result in damage to the pushrod tip.As such, the pushrod would have had to be subjected to the damage (bending of the pushrod tip) by some other action outside of normal lens delivery.There is no further information provided to indicate when this damage may have occurred.Potential root causes can include the device being dropped or damaged during handling, resterilization, etc.Product deficiency and product malfunction cannot be confirmed.Conclusion: as a result of the investigation there is no indication of a product quality deficiency.All pertinent information available to johnson and johnson surgical vision, inc.Has been submitted.
