It was reported that the intraocular lens (iol) did not load correctly and the cartridge had a defect in it.
Additional information received revealed that the tip of the cartridge had a fork in it.
The cartridge had a split near the tip which was not seen until it was seen in the microscope.
Due to this, the lens wrapped around the plunger instead of curling up when the plunger was applied to insert the lens into the patient's operative eye.
The tip of the lens was inserted into the eye, however, the lens inserter was pulled out before completely pushing the lens into the eye as the problem was noticed then.
No additional intervention was required and the procedure was completed using a different lens and cartridge.
No further information was available.
