The reference (b)(6) has been allocated to this case by rayner.The event description provided states that the plunger got stuck in injector and the iol broke.As a result of the event the patient was left aphakic.Due to unavailability of a back-up lens, the patient required a secondary implantation surgery.The rayone preloaded iol injection system use risk analysis identifies the following as possible causes of "trapped/torn lens haptic/optic during insertion"; inadequate amount of viscoelastic, inadequate quality of viscoelastic, haptic trapped by plunger override due to fast motion, user opens closed flaps and closes again before use, plunger advanced too quickly, insertion of viscoelastic through nozzle leading to inadequate amount of viscoelastic, user removed injector from tray prior to inserting viscoelastic - causing lens to be improperly placed in cartridge, user removes injector from tray prior to closing cartridge - resulting in cartridge not being clipped closed properly and optic edge trapped/damaged on closure of cartridge.Our review of production records for the rayone emv rao200e batch 063217598 showed that all manufacturing and quality checks were conducted with successful results.All devices released for distribution from this batch were within tolerance, met specification criteria and were without defects.A review of vigilance data confirms that this is an isolated event.No other incidents, of any type, have been received against the rayone emv rao200e batch 063217598.It is not possible to establish root cause from the limited evidence and information available.
