Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation.A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.Based on the results of the investigation, a definitive root cause of the reported missing light post issue could not be determined, however, the observed defects indicate that the issue was caused by excessive force during user handling/mishandling.The broken lens in the optical system is a result of dents in the cladding tube.Olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
