Additional information: 4112- inspection of the returned device identified a foreign particulates on the lens.External laboratory analysis was performed to determine the composition of the foreign material identified on the lens.The particles were found to be primarily composed of protein with lens material and trace amounts of sodium, phosphorus, calcium, sulfur, chloride, magnesium, and aluminum for particle 1.Particle 2 was primarily composed of a fatty amide.Particle 3 was primarily composed of protein and phosphate salts (mostly calcium) with trace amounts of magnesium, chloride, silicone, aluminum, and sulfur.H6: 3331-device history review: the device history records were reviewed and there were no non-conformities or deviations noted during the manufacturing of the lens that would have caused or contributed to the nature of this complaint.Based on the results of the investigation, all released devices from the associated work order(s), including the suspected device, have been manufactured within established process parameters and there is no indication that the manufacturing and processing of the device contributed to the complaint issue.Corrective and/or preventive actions are being addressed through capa-24-001 and this issue will continue to be tracked and trended as part of the normal device safety committee meetings and capa monitoring.Cllaim#(b)(4).
