Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
The product was returned for analysis and the reported complaint was observed.Iol returned adhered inside gauze tape.Optic can be seen to be cut.Unable to remove sample from gauze tape or conduct further evaluation testing due to condition of returned sample.The complainant indicates the use of non-company as a viscoelastic, which is not qualified for use with associated iol model.While we are unable to determine the origin of the reported complaint, our observations reasonably suggest that it is not manufacturing related.Based on the information provided by the customer, the most likely root cause is failure to follow instructions for use (ifu), as the surgeon states the use of non-qualified combination.The use of an unqualified combination may cause damage to the iol and potential complications during the implantation process.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
