The device with the lens was returned loose in the carton.The plunger lock and the lens stop were removed.The plunger was oriented correctly.Viscoelastic was observed in the device.The plunger was advanced into the nozzle entry area.The plunger has underrode the lens.The lens was located within the lens loading area.The leading haptic was extended along the plunger with the distal haptic tip at the far end of the loading area.The trailing haptic was misfolded under the optic along the left side of the plunger.Product history records were reviewed and documentation indicated the product met release criteria.Viscoelastic information was not provided.It is unknown if a qualified viscoelastic was indicated.A plunger underride was observed.This was most likely interpreted as the reported complaint of "implant that has passed under the injector".The lens was within the lens loading area.The root cause cannot be determined for the reported complaint.It is unknown if a qualified viscoelastic was used.The instructions for use (ifu) instructs: during device preparation and implantation of the company iol with the company preloaded delivery system, a company qualified ophthalmic viscoelastic device (ovd) should be used.The use of an unqualified ovd may cause damage to the lens and potential complications during the device preparation and implantation steps.Plunger underride may occur: due to rapid advancement faster than the ifu recommend rate.Due to the use of a non-qualified viscoelastic.The use of an unqualified ovd may cause damage to the lens and potential complications during the device preparation and implantation steps.If inadequate viscoelastic is placed in the device, this will cause inadequate coverage of the lens fold path which may cause the lens to advance incorrectly or become ¿stuck¿ in the device allowing the plunger to underride the lens.If the device is overfilled with ovd, this can prevent the trailing haptic from being placed properly or move the lens out of position resulting in misfolding.If the operating room temperature is too high (> 23°c / 73° f) lens folding consistency is negatively affected, the lens is more adherent and this may inhibit lens advancement.Any of the above listed causes alone, or in combination, may create the reported event.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
