Manufacturer Narrative

(b)(4).The intraocular lens (iol) was returned to the manufacturing site for investigation.Visual inspection found the cartridge in the correct position and the lens assembled correctly (fully engaged into lower body of the pcb00 device).Stress marks were visible at the cartridge neck and tip deformation was observed.The returned product verified that the cartridge inside was empty.The iol was observed outside of the cartridge body.During visual inspection, the lens was observed without the presence of cosmetic defects.However, surface residuals (fiber/particles) and ovd (viscoelastic) residue on the lens was found and is compatible with handling of the lens.The observations were identified in an optical lens without damage, and/or on the haptics.The functional test could not be performed because the device is single use and used.The manufacturing records were reviewed.Process record evaluation was performed and the lens manufacturing process record was verified and it was found that the lenses were manufactured within specifications.There were no associated deviations or non-conformity reports found in the manufacturing record review that were related to reported complaint.The lenses were released according specification in compliance with the product intended use as required.The device manufacturing procedures were performed as required.The lens met specification prior to release.All pertinent information available to abbott medical optics has been submitted.
