Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that during implantation of the preloaded intraocular lens (iol), the trailing haptic was not folded on top of the optic.Instead, it was stuck to the plunger rod and as the surgeon was manipulating the lens to get it off of the inserter, the leading haptic tore a hole in the capsular bag.No reported vitreous came forward.The lens was fully inserted and left in the correct position in the eye.Miochol-e was used in surgery and the patient was instructed to lay flat for one hour post-operative.The patient was checked a few hours later and the visual acuity was fine and capsular bag hole remains stable.No further information was provided.
