Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
The lens was returned for evaluation.Solution is dried on the lens.Only half of the lens was returned with no haptics.One haptic was broken from the gusset area of the returned half of the optic.Scratches are observed on the returned section.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.Broken haptic and lens damage was observed.All lenses are 100% inspected for cosmetic attributes and the damage exhibited by the returned complaint sample would not have met company¿s release criteria.Based on our observation, 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.Follow up attempts were made.At this point, no further information available at this time.Company foldable iols are qualified for use with a company qualified delivery system (handpiece and cartridge) and ophthalmic viscosurgical device (ovd) combination.The instructions for use (ifu) instructs that a company qualified delivery system and viscoelastic combination should be used.The use of an unqualified combination may cause damage to the lens and potential complications during the implantation process.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
