H6- investigation type code: 4110- lens work order search- one similar complaint event(s) within associated lots were found.H11- manufacturer narrative: a review of the device labeling was completed.Ocular inflammation is identified in the labeling as a known potential adverse event following icl implantation.The evo/evo+ icl directions for use (dfu) states under adverse events: as with implantation of other types of intraocular lenses, potential adverse events can include, but are not limited to infection and iritis.Toxic anterior segment syndrome (tass) is an acute sterile postoperative inflammation that can occur after uncomplicated or complicated intraocular surgery.Improper sterilization and contamination of surgical instruments remains the most common risk factor associated with tass.This was confirmed by the reported information of both surgeons thinking the internal sterilization process and likely the reusable manipulator contributed.Status of both patients improved with lens remaining implanted.Claim# (b)(4).
