Event or Problem Description

It was reported that the preloaded intraocular lens was removed from the patient's right eye as he did not have enough capsular support to hold the lens.It was stated that the patient most likely had small posterior capsule tear during the initial implantation that was not apparent, however, it was only apparent when the surgeon attempted the lens exchange.A competitor 3 piece lens was used as the replacement and the enlarged corneal wound was sutured to accommodate the lens exchange procedure, which was stated to be a standard of care.There was no other patient injury reported.The patient was doing well post operation with 20/40 vision uncorrected, which would be improving with refraction by optometry.No further information was provided.
