Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Additional information provided in h.6.And h.11.The complainant indicates the use of company handpiece which is not qualified for use with the associated iol model.The product investigation could not identify the root cause for the reported complaint.The customer indicates the use of a non-qualified handpiece, this may have contributed to the complaint.Company foldable 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.In addition to this, 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-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.Based on the results from the product history record, the products met release criteria.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
