Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Corrected information provided in h.6.And h.11.On initial mdr the product code should have been a0502 instead of a0201 additional information provided in h.3., h.6.And h.11 the account indicated the use of an unspecified associated cartridge and handpiece.It is unknown if qualified products were used.The viscoelastic indicated is not qualified for use with this iol, with the use of any qualified lens/cartridge/handpiece combination.The root cause for the reported complaint may be related to a failure to follow the instructions for use (ifu).The viscoelastic indicated is not qualified for use with this iol, with the use of any qualified lens/cartridge/handpiece combination.The ifu instructs that an company qualified delivery system and viscoelastic combination should be used.The use of an unqualified combination may cause damage to the lens and potential complications during the implantation process.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 ophthalmic viscosurgical devices (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.The account indicated the product was not available to evaluate.The reporter has not responded to requests for follow-up information.File will be reopened if new information is received.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
