The lens was returned in a plastic bag with a surgical sponge.Solution was dried on the lens.One haptic was broken in the distal area (broken portion not returned).The optic was cut into pieces, typical of insertion and removal.The cut optic pieces had multiple large scratches on the anterior and posterior sides of the lens.Power and resolution testing could not be conducted due to the extensive optic damage.The file indicated the use of a qualified cartridge and handpiece.The viscoelastic indicated is non-qualified for the lens/cartridge combination used.Power and resolution testing could not be conducted due to the extensive optic damage.The power and resolution of each lens is 100% evaluated during the manufacturing process to determine acceptability per model and diopter.Information was provided in the file that the multifocal toric (1.50cyl) lens, add power +2.2 & 3.2 lens model was replaced with a monofocal non-toric non-company 20.5 diopter lens.Due to the exchange of a multifocal lens to a monofocal lens may suggest that the replacement lens model was an improved choice for the patient's vision needs.No additional information has been provided at this time.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
