A review of the device labeling was completed.Iritis is identified in the labeling as a known adverse event after icl implantation.The dfu states potential adverse events can include iritis (iridocyclitis) and may require secondary surgery.The dfu provides the surgeon instruction for complete ovd removal.Iritis is an inflammatory condition which is common after intra-ocular surgery, however this is usually mild and does not require any additional interventions beyond the standard post-op regimen.In some cases the degree of inflammation may be more severe.Procedural factors including surgical technique, inadvertent intra-operative trauma and the use of pro-inflammatory substances into the eye may have contributed to the event.An exact cause could not be determined as the event could be multifactorial in nature including patient and/or procedure related factors.(b)(4).
