Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The lens was returned in a small glass container filled with a clear liquid and what appears to be a plastic cover.The optic was cut into pieces, typical of insertion and removal.Power and resolution testing could not be conducted due to the extensive optic damage.The file indicated the use of qualified associated products.Information was provided that in the surgeon's opinion, the lens did not cause or contribute to the event.In the surgeon's opinion the cause of the event was the patient could not tolerate.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 company lens 21.0 diopter, add power +2.2 & 3.2 lens model was replaced with a non-company monofocal.Due to the exchange of a multifocal lens to a monofocal lens, 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).
