H6 - type of investigation: 4110 - lens work order search: no similar complaint type events reported for units within the same lot.Manufacturer narrative: a review of the device labeling was completed.The dfu provides the surgeon instruction for complete ovd removal.Precaution: (6) after inserting this product, aspirate the viscoelastic substance completely from inside the eye.Do not use highly viscous viscoelastic substances that are difficult to aspirate completely.Under other defects there is a possibility of (3) foreign matter adhering to the lens surface.Under precautions for use: apply with caution on the following patients (14) history of uveitis.Chronic postop inflammation is typically idiopathic and require extended steroid treatment.Toxic anterior segment syndrome (tass) is an acute sterile postoperative inflammation that can occur after uncomplicated or complicated intraocular surgery.While improper sterilization and contamination of surgical instruments remains the most common risk factor associated with tass, ocular viscoelastic, and improper preparation of antibiotics for intracameral injection may also lead to tass.An exact cause could not be determined as the event could be multifactorial in nature including patient and/or procedure related factors.Claim# (b)(4).
