Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that a patient underwent lens exchange surgery in the left eye (os), replacing a non-johnson & johnson intraocular lens (iol) with a johnson & johnson non-preloaded three-piece iol.Following the procedure, the patient experienced persistent uncorrectable blurred vision os, despite undergoing two lens repositioning procedures on (b)(6) 2024, which did not resolve the issue.The patient claims to be unable to see out of os.Pre-existing conditions os, including macular pucker, cystoid macular edema, and glaucoma, were noted as potential contributors to the blurred vision.After the johnson & johnson lens was implanted, the patient¿s uncorrected visual acuity (va) showed significant fluctuations, ranging from hand motion on the day of the lens exchange to 20/60 by (b)(6) 2025, with corrected vision recorded at 20/50 as of (b)(6) 2025.The following uncorrected visual acuities were noted: on (b)(6) 2024 va was 20/50, on (b)(6) 2024 va was 20/200, on (b)(6) 2024 va was 20/30, on (b)(6) 2024 va was light perception.Uncorrected va after the first lens reposition were as follows: (b)(6) 2024 va was 200 at 7 feet, on (b)(6) 2024 va was 200 at 10 feet.In (b)(6) 2024, the patient¿s uncorrected va was 200 at 9 feet.The patient was referred to a retinal specialist for further evaluation, as the surgeon was unable to determine whether the issue was related to the lens or the pre-existing conditions.The johnson & johnson lens remains implanted, and no additional interventions are currently planned.No further information was provided.
