Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The lens was returned in a small paper envelope.The lens 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 a qualified associated cartridge and handpiece.The viscoelastic indicated is not qualified for the product combination used.The product investigation could not identify a root cause for the reported complaint.Power and resolution testing could not be conducted due to the extensive optic damage.An intraocular lens exchange for a difference equal to or greater than two diopters, indicates the event is most likely related to a calculation error.Due to the exchange of a multifocal lens to a monofocal lens 3.0 diopters higher 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).
