Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
Additional information provided in h.3., h.6.And h.11.The product was not returned.Product history records were reviewed and the documentation indicated the product met release criteria.An unspecified company cartridge, qualified handpiece and non-qualified viscoelastic were indicated.The product was not returned.The root cause for the reported complaint may be related to a failure to follow the instructions for use (ifu).Information was provided that the lens looked like it was glued together.The viscoelastic indicated is not qualified for use.It is unknown if a qualified cartridge was used.The ifu instructs that a 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 ifu instructs to completely fill the cartridge with ophthalmic viscosurgical device (ovd) immediately prior to loading and delivery of the lens.Do not attempt to load the lens without adequate ovd in the device.Not adequately filling the device with viscoelastic will result in inadequate coverage of lens and the lens fold path with ovd, which may result in damage.Use the company cartridge at operating room temperatures between 18 degree c (64 degree f) and 23 degree c (73 degree f).The ifu instructs: using holding forceps, grasp the lens by the optic edge and gently place the lens anterior side up into the back of the ovd-filled cartridge.The lens should be inserted until the optic is a little more than half-way inside the cartridge.Use the holding forceps to gently push down on the lens, verifying that the lens is on the bottom surface of the cartridge.Using holding forceps, take the trailing haptic, and gently fold the haptic onto the anterior side of the optic.Slowly grip or push the optic edge to position the lens as far into the cartridge as the forceps will permit, while ensuring the lens remains on the bottom surface of the cartridge and the trailing haptic remains on the optic.Failure to follow these steps may cause the lens to advance incorrectly causing delivery issues and/or damage.Due diligence has been performed in an attempt to obtain further information on this event.File will be reopened if new information or the sample is received.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
