Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The product was not returned.All product and batch history records are quality reviewed prior to product release.Information was provided that a non-qualified cartridge was used.The lens diopter was beyond the range qualified for use in the company cartridge.A qualified handpiece was indicated.Two viscoelastics were indicated, only one was qualified for this lens with the qualified company cartridge combinations.The root cause of the reported complaint was most likely related to a failure to follow the instruction for use (ifu).A non-qualified cartridge and non-qualified viscoelastic was indicated.The lens diopter was larger than the qualified range for the company cartridge.The ifu instructs that an company qualified delivery system and viscoelastic combination should be used.The use of an unqualified combination may cause damage to the lens and potential complications during the implantation process.Company recommends using the qualified company iol delivery system or any other company qualified combination.Information indicated that when the haptics unfolded, that's when the surgeon noticed the broken haptics and proceeded to cut the lens out for a replacement lens of same diopter.However, the capsule bag was stuck to the broken pieces and proceeded to rip the bag apart.The surgeon proceeded to leave the patient aphakic and discharged.The file indicated that the explanted lens was discarded when the surgeon cut the lens out of the patient's eye.There are no other complaints in this lot.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).

Event or Problem Description
Additional information received and stated that the patient had substantial persistent corneal edema after the vitrectomy required, after lens removal.Her secondary iol was postponed until cornea cleared.The patient recently underwent secondary scleral fixated iol implantation, however she continues to have persistent corneal edema.Unfortunately, the energy of the required vitrectomy seems to have likely caused some degree of permanent or at least long-standing corneal dysfunction.
