Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The product was returned for analysis and the reported complaint could not be observed.Intraocular lens (iol) was returned outside the device.Additional observations were as follows: the device was returned loose in the carton.The lens stop and the plunger stop have been removed.The plunger is oriented correctly.Viscoelastic is observed in the device.The plunger is retracted to the mid nozzle.No damage observed to the device.The lens is returned outside of the device adhered to the label set.Solution is dried on the iol.No damage observed.There have been no other complaints for this lot.The product investigation could not identify the root cause for the reported complaint "injector overriding the iol" as the lens was returned outside the device.Due to this, we are unable to confirm lens and haptic position for advancement and determine a root cause.Plunger override may occur: if the lens has become misaligned in the lens bay during the manufacturing process.Due to the use of a non-qualified viscoelastic.Material properties of non-qualified ovds may contribute to underfill, overfill, misfolding of the haptics, or other inconsistent folding outcomes.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 override the lens.If the operating room temperature is too high ( 23°c / 73° f) lens folding consistency is negatively affected, the lens is more adherent and this may inhibit lens advancement.Any of the above listed causes alone, or in combination, may create the reported event.All product and batch history records are quality reviewed prior to product release.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
