Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Given the prolonged period (8 months) without required light treatment to lock the implanted light adjustable lense in, it is highly likely that the lens was exposed to unintended ambient uv light during that time.Effects of ambient uv exposure prior to lock-in is an ambient zone on the lens which is highly consistent with the treating physician's decision.The light adjustable lense for the left eye (os) remains implanted at this time.The lens is planned to be explanted.Further evaluation of the lens will be conducted upon rxsight receiving the lens.
