Manufacturer Reason
for Recall		 Inaccurate measurements may be generated by the device, which could result in improper treatment and deterioration of patient eyesight.
FDA Determined
Cause 2		 Software design
Action A product advisory notice was mailed to all consignees on June 9, 2008, advising consignees to closely monitor the WaveScan results to ensure that mistreatment is not given to patients. The firm has ceased distributing the updated software. ***UPDATE 08/29/2008*** The firm revised its recall strategy on 08/28/2008 because the firm was informed that a 180 day PMA supplement rather than a real time review supplement would be required for the software upgrade approval. The firm will instead revert products to the previous software version, 3.67/3.671. If you have questions, contact 1-877-AMO-4LIFE, options 1, 2, and then 2.
Quantity in Commerce 160 kits
Distribution Product was distributed to 152 customers throughout the United States.
