Manufacturer Narrative

A4-a6: unk.Manufacture narrative: a review of the device labeling was completed.Inflammation not limited to: iritis(iridocyclitis), fibrin precipitation, and cells in the anterior chamber are identified in the labeling as a known potential adverse event following icl implantation.The dfu provides the surgeon instruction for lens implantation and complete ovd removal.Precaution: (6) after inserting this product, aspirate the viscoelastic substance completely from inside the eye.Iritis is an inflammatory condition which is common after intra-ocular surgery, however this is usually mild and does not require any additional interventions beyond the standard post-op regimen.In some cases, the degree of inflammation may be more severe and require extended steroid treatment.Procedural factors including excessive surgical manipulation and the use of pro-inflammatory substances in the eye may have contributed to the event.Mechanical insult to the iris can result in a prolonged or stronger inflammatory response.An exact cause could not be determined as the event could be multifactorial in nature including patient and/or procedure related factors.Claim #(b)(4).
