Event or Problem Description
A non-healthcare professional reported that before cataract surgery with intraocular lens (iol) implant procedure, iol had a scratch.There was no patient contact.Additional information has been requested.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The lens was returned positioned incorrectly in the lens case.Solution is dried on the lens.Both haptics were bent in the gusset and distal area.The optic had a deep scrape mark near the center on the anterior side.The optic was pressed against the posts and down into the well area of the lens case.Product history records were reviewed, and the documentation indicated the product met release criteria.Associated products were not provided.It is unknown if qualified products were used.The reported lens damage was observed.All lenses are 100 percent inspected for cosmetic attributes and the damage exhibited by the returned complaint sample would not have met company¿s release criteria.Based on our observation, and the review of manufacturing records, 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.Not enough information was provided to determine if a qualified product combination was used.Company foldable intraocular lens (iols) are qualified for use with an company qualified delivery system (handpiece and cartridge) and ophthalmic viscosurgical device (ovd) combination.The use of an unqualified combination may cause damage to the iol and potential complications during the implantation process.The instructions 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.Due diligence has been performed in an attempt to obtain further information on this event.No further information has been provided at this time.File will be reopened if new information is received.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
