Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information was provided in d.9., h.3., h.6.And h.11.The product was returned for analysis and damage to the lens was observed.Intraocular lens (intraocular lens (iol) ) was returned outside of the device.The device was received in a blister tray inside the product carton.The lock-out assembly has been removed.Viscoelastic is observed in the device.The plunger has been fully advanced outside the nozzle.No damage observed.The lens was returned in two segments outside of the device.Solution is dried on the intraocular lens (iol).Both haptics are intact.The intraocular lens (iol) is scratched/marked rejectable.The product investigation could not identify the root cause for the reported complaint "scratch on the optic" as the lens was returned outside of the device.Due to this, we are unable to confirm the lens and the plunger position for advancement and determine a root cause.The lens was returned split in two, which is consistent with lens having been explanted.Lens damage may occur due to the use of a non-qualified viscoelastic.Lens delivery performance may be negatively affected when using other non-qualified viscoelastics leading to underfill, overfill, misfolding , delivery issues and /or damage.If inadequate viscoelastic is placed in the device this will cause inadequate coverage of the lens fold path which may cause the lens to advance incorrectly and cause delivery issues and /or damage.If the operating room temperature is too high (more than 23 degrees celsius or 73 degrees fahrenheit) lens folding consistency is negatively affected, the lens is more adherent and this may inhibit lens advancement and cause delivery issues and / or product damage.Any of the above listed causes alone, or in combination, may create the reported event.In addition to this, all intraocular lens (iol) s are 100 percent cosmetically inspected as per approved manufacturing procedures and the observed lens damage would not meet our current release criteria.Based on these investigation findings, we are unable to verify if the intraocular lens (iol) /device contributed to the event.Based on the results from the product history record, the products met release criteria.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
