Manufacturer Narrative
|
The product was returned for analysis and the reported complaint was observed.The device was returned loose in the product carton.The lock-out assembly has been removed.No viscoelastic is observed in the device.The plunger has been advanced at the wound guard and is advanced under the lens.The lens is advanced into the nozzle entry and is crushed.A plunger underride was observed.The root cause may be related to failure to follow the instruction for use (ifu).Inadequate viscoelastic was observed in the device.The ifu instructs: fill the device until ovd can be observed flowing to the nozzle tip.This will require approximately 0.28 ml of viscoelastic.If inadequate viscoelastic is placed in the device this will cause inadequate coverage of the lens fold path which may cause the lens to advance incorrectly or become stuck in the device allowing the plunger to underride the lens.Based on the results from the product history record, the products met release criteria.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
