Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The product was returned for analysis and the reported complaint was observed.Additional observations were as follows: the device is returned in the blister tray in the carton.The lens stop and the plunger stop has been removed.The correct nozzle confirmed on the device.Viscoelastic is observed in the device.The plunger and the lens are advanced into the mid nozzle and the plunger is advanced under the lens.The lens is misfolded.Additional information: the complainant indicates the use of non company viscoelastic as a viscoelastic, which is not qualified for use with associated company device.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 ifu (instructions for use), as the customer states the use of non-qualified viscoelastic.The use of an unqualified ovd (ophthalmic viscosurgical device) may cause damage to the lens and potential complications during the implantation process.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
