The device was returned and evaluated.Microscopic examination found the lens cut in 2 pieces across the optic.The iol haptics did not exhibit any defects or breakage in the junction area.A device history record (dhr) review did not find any non-conformities or anomalies related to this event.The trend analysis, risk analysis and/or directions for use review were considered acceptable, with the product performing within anticipated rates.Based on the information provided a root cause could not be established.

It was reported that after the insertion of an iol, into the eye, a portion of the iol haptic/optic junction was broken.The surgeon made the decision to leave the iol in the eye, because it seemed stable.Approximately a week after the implantation, there was a forty-degree rotation of the iol.The iol was explanted and replaced with a lens of the same model and diopter, 2 weeks post-implantation.In the surgeon''s opinion, the partially broken optic/haptic junction may have caused the iol rotation.The patient outcome is good.
