Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
The product was not returned.Product history records were reviewed and the documentation indicated the product met release criteria.Associated product information was not provided.It is unknown if associated products were used with the lens.The product investigation could not identify a root cause for the reported complaint.The product was not returned.The complaint information was translated.The initial report description indicated that the "lens did not unfold, discarded".The sample is not available.The instructions for use (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 ophthalmic viscosurgical device (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.It is unknown if the translated description of the event was an attempt to describe a lens received in a lens case in an incorrect position.Due diligence has been performed in an attempt to obtain further information on this event.The reporter has not responded to request for follow-up information.File will be reopened if new information is received.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
