The lens was returned placed incorrectly into the lens case.One haptic was bent onto the optic.It is unknown if this haptic was the leading or trailing haptic.The posterior optic has a line of gouged damage near the edge.The damage to the posterior of the optic may suggest that the handpiece plunger underrode the lens during delivery.The associated cartridge was not returned for an evaluation.Product history records were reviewed and the documentation indicated the product met release criteria.A qualified cartridge and handpiece were used.A non-qualified viscoelastic was indicated.The root cause for the reported complaint may be related to a failure to follow the instructions (ifu).A non-qualified viscoelastic was indicated.The ifu (instructions for use) instructs: company foldable iols are qualified for use with an company qualified delivery system (handpiece and cartridge) and ophthalmic viscosurgical device (ovd) combination.The ifu instructs that an company qualified delivery system and viscoelastic combination should be used.The use of an unqualified combination may cause damage to the lens and potential complications during the implantation process.The manufacturer internal reference number is:(b)(4).
