Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
The account indicated the use of a qualified associated cartridge with a non-qualified handpiece and viscoelastic.The root cause is most likely related to a failure to follow the instruction for use (ifu).The account used an unqualified lens/cartridge/viscoelastic combination.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.Please be aware that there is currently a ban on the export of medical devices from the russian federation.The file will be reopened if the sample becomes available.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
