A non health care professional reported that during surgery the lens was not implanted as a piece of came off in the eye and the piece and lens was removed during an initial procedure.The procedure was completed on same day without any impact to the patient.Additional information has been requested.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The lens was returned for evaluation.Solution is dried on the lens.Only half of the lens was returned with a broken haptic in the gusset area (not returned).The optic is split and cracked.Product history records were reviewed and the documentation indicated the product met release criteria.Qualified associated products were indicated.Lens damage was observed on the half of lens that was returned.We are unable to verify a piece came off in the eye and what piece it was.All lenses are 100 percent inspected for cosmetic attributes and the damage exhibited by the returned complaint sample would not have met company 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.Qualified associated products were indicated.The ifu (instructions for use) 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 (viscosurgical device) 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.Company ifu: follow the section regarding directions for use for information on the maximum allowed time for the iol (intraocular lens) to stay in the folded condition.Failure to adhere to manufacturer¿s recommendations may result in iol damage.Ifu note: during lens loading and insertion, do not allow the company iol to remain in a folded condition within the selected iol delivery system for more than 3 minutes prior to completing insertion into the capsular bag.File will be reopened if new information is received.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
