Event or Problem Description

|
A non-health care professional reported that during an intraocular lens (iol) implant procedure, the lens was placed in the patients eye it appeared as though there was a fiber or hair behind the lens.After multiple attempts to remove the foreign object it was determined that the defect was in the lens itself, possibly a crack in the lens, and the lens was then removed by the surgeon.Additional information has been requested.

Correction information was provided in h.6.In initial mdr the fda health impact code f1905 was reported in error.It has been removed.Additional information was provided in h.11.The product was not returned.Product history records were reviewed and the documentation indicated the product met release criteria.The account indicated the use of qualified associated products.The product investigation could not identify a root cause for the reported complaint.The account indicated the product was not available to evaluate.The instruction for use (ifu) instructs to completely fill the cartridge with ovd immediately prior to loading and delivery of the lens.Do not attempt to load the lens without adequate ovd in the device.Not adequately filling the device with viscoelastic will result in inadequate coverage of lens and the lens fold path with ovd, which may result in damage.The 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 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.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
