B5 - the reporter indicated that while attempting to implant a 12.6mm vticm5_12.6; -6.50/3.0/096 (sphere/cylinder/axis) implantable collamer lens into the patient's left eye (os) it was indicated that the lens had also flipped upside down and had elevated iop.The lens was implanted and removed intraoperatively within the initial surgery.On 18/12/2023 the lens was replaced with a same model and length lens.Reportedly, the cause of this event was marked as "device", "user error" and yes the device failed to perform as intended.Cause details provided "during icl implantation, the icl did not unfold properly, but folded sideways on itself.Attempts to use viscoelastic to unfold the lens in the proper orientation were unsuccessful.This occurred twice".This did not resolve the problem.See mdr # 2023826-2024-00062.For replacement lens claim #(b)(4).
