Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information was provided in h.3., h.6.And h.11.The product was not returned.A photo was provided.The endcap of the lens carton was shown.The lens was not shown in the photo.A device history record review, and a non-conformance-based review of the lot was performed and did not reveal any potential contributing factors to the reported complaint.All corresponding production release specifications defined in the device master record were met.Associated product information was not provided.It is unknown if qualified products were used.The product investigation could not identify a root cause for the reported complaint.The product was not returned.It is unknown if qualified associated products were used.The instructions for use (ifu) company foldable iols are qualified for use with an company qualified delivery system (handpiece and cartridge) and ophthalmic viscosurgical device (ophthalmic visco surgical device) 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: use holding forceps to grasp the lens by the optic edge and gently place the lens anterior side up into the back of the ophthalmic visco surgical device-filled cartridge.The lens should be inserted until it is centered with or slightly past the outline etched into the top of the cartridge.Lenses with a 6.5 mm optic diameter may need to be pre-folded for easy entry into the back of the cartridge.Lens may be pre-folded by gently applying pressure to the edge of the lens while holding the central optic with forceps.The trailing haptic will extend from the proximal end of the cartridge.Position the trailing haptic to the left of the haptic post as shown in the detailed view.This will allow the plunger to go past the haptic during the initial advancement of the plunger into the cartridge.Verify the lens is positioned on the bottom surface of the cartridge.The haptic should be maintained to the left of the post when the lens is loaded correctly.Accurate positioning of the lens will decrease the potential for optic and haptic damage.It is unknown if adequate viscoelastic was used.The 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.Important: the plunger should make initial contact with the cartridge at the ramp.In the event the plunger does not contact the cartridge at the ramp, do not use the handpiece and contact company.The handpiece ifu instructs: verify that the plunger tip is properly engaging the lens optic and that the lens moves forward at the same rate as the plunger while slowly advancing the plunger forward to avoid damaging the lens.When the threads on the knob make contact with the barrel, turn the knob clockwise approximately half turn to engage the threads and then stop.The iol will now be in the dwell position.Inspect to ensure the plunger is behind the optic.The reporter confirmed that no follow up can be conducted because the initial reporter contact information was not provided.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
