Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The lens was returned positioned incorrectly in the lens case.Solution was dried on the lens.One haptic was broken in the distal area (not returned).The other haptic was bent at the haptic insertion area and in the distal area.The optic was torn/split/cracked from edge towards center of the lens.Associated products were not provided.It is unknown if the qualified products were used.The company lens model is only qualified for use in the company cartridge.The root cause could not be determined for the reported complaint of ¿defective lens¿.The specific lens issue was not specified.Damage to the lens was observed.While we are unable to determine the root cause of the lens damage, our observation reasonably suggests that it 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.Not enough information was provided to determine if qualified associated products were used.Company foldable iols are qualified for use with an company qualified delivery system (handpiece and cartridge) and ophthalmic viscosurgical device (ovd) combination.The use of an unqualified combination may cause damage to the iol and potential complications during the implantation process.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
