Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The account indicated the use of an unspecified cartridge and handpiece.The viscoelastic indicated is not qualified for use with this lens with any qualified lens/cartridge/handpiece combination.The product investigation could not identify a root cause for the reported complaint.Each lens is subjected to a 100% assessment of the power and optical resolution during the manufacturing process in order to determine acceptability per the lens model and diopter.Information was provided that the toric, company lens (2.25cyl), 20.0 diopter, (1.5 extended depth of focus) lens was replaced with a non-company, 20.0 diopter, non-toric lens model.The product was not available for evaluation.Additional information was provided that the patient had pre-existing keratoconjunctivitis sicca and macular pucker.It was report that the patient continues to have blurred vision after the exchange.Due to the exchange of a toric lens model to a non-toric lens model, this 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).
