Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The lens was returned on surgical gauzes inside a small plastic container.Solution was dried on the lens.Both haptics were broken/cut from the optic.The optic was cut into multiple pieces and some pieces had scratches and cracks on the anterior and posterior sides of the lens.The damage observed is typical of insertion and removal.Power and resolution testing could not be conducted due to the extensive optic damage.Product history records were reviewed and the documentation indicated the product met release criteria.Associated products were not provided.It is unknown if qualified products were used.The product investigation could not identify a root cause for the reported "poor refractive results".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.The reported scratches were observed.All lenses are 100% inspected for cosmetic attributes and the damage exhibited by the returned complaint sample would not have met company release criteria.Based on our observation, and the review of manufacturing records, it can be reasonably concluded that the damage is not manufacturing related.Due to the presence of surgical solution and the condition of the returned sample, the damage is most likely related to customer handling.Replacement lens information was not provided.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
