Event Description
|
It was reported that there was an intraocular lens (iol) defect and that the cartridge tip had burst.Through follow up, it was learned that on (b)(6) 2022, the surgeon went to implant the intraocular lens into the patient's operative eye, used balanced saline solution and the lens got stuck.The surgeon looked down and the cartridge tip had burst.The cartridge tip made contact with the patient's eye, but not the lens.When the surgeon later looked at the optic, he also saw that it was torn.However, the doctor stressed that this lens did not make contact with the patient, as the lens was still stuck in the cartridge.The patient was given a new lens of the same model and diopter and everything went well.Both patient and surgeon are satisfied.The surgeon is unsure if material is still available, but says he will get in touch with the quality team if it is.No other information was provided.
