Event or Problem Description
A physician stated that during an intraocular lens (iol) implant procedure, the intraocular lens was broken.Additional information has been requested.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information has been provided in d4., d9., h.3., h.6., and h.11.The lens was returned submerged inside a small glass specimen jar filled with clear liquid.The lens was removed and allowed to air-dry.One haptic was broken in the haptic/optic junction.No other lens damage was observed.Product history records were reviewed and the documentation indicated the product met release criteria.Associated product information was not provided.It is unknown if qualified associated products were used.One haptic was broken.The broken haptic was most likely interpreted as the reported complaint.All lenses are 100% inspected for cosmetic attributes and the damage exhibited by the returned complaint sample would not have met alcon¿s release criteria.Based on our observation, it can be reasonably concluded that the damage is not manufacturing related.Due to the presence of surgical solution and the condition of the returned sample, the damage is most likely related to customer handling.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 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 qualified associated products were used.The ifu instructs: company foldable intraocular lens (iol) are qualified for use with a company qualified delivery system (handpiece and cartridge) and ophthalmic viscosurgical device (ovd) combination.The ifu instructs that an 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.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).
