The lens was returned positioned incorrectly in the lens case.Solution was dried on the lens.One haptic was broken in the gusset area (not returned).The optic was cut into pieces, typical of insertion and removal.The cut optic pieces had multiple scratches on the anterior and posterior sides of the lens.Complaint history and product history records were reviewed and documentation indicated the product met release criteria.Information was provided in the file that indicated the use of a non-qualified lens/cartridge/viscoelastic combination.The company lens model is only qualified for use in the company model ii and iii cartridges.Company ovd (ophthalmic viscosurgical device) is the only qualified viscoelastic with the qualified lens/cartridge combination.The handpiece indicated is qualified when used with the qualified lens/cartridge combinations.The reported lens damage was observed.The root cause for the reported complaint appears to be related to failure to follow the ifu (instructions for use).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.There are no other complaints in this lot.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
