Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Photo provided showing the company device.The plunger has been fully advanced outside the tip of the nozzle.The lens is partially advanced outside the device and is damaged/ torn.Based on our observation of the attached photo, lens has become stuck in the tip of the nozzle.A definitive determination of damage cannot be made without the evaluation of the physical product.A final root cause cannot be determined based on available information.Lens may become stuck in the device: ¿ if inadequate viscoelastic is placed in the device this will cause inadequate coverage of the lens fold path which may cause the lens to become ¿stuck¿ in the device ¿ 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 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.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
