Additional information provided in d.9., d.10., h.3., h.6.And h.11.The lens was returned positioned incorrectly in the lens case.Solution was dried on the lens.Both haptics were bent in the gusset and distal area.One haptic was broken in the distal tip area (not returned).The optic has deep scuff marks with cracks on the anterior and posterior sides of the lens in the shape of an instrument used to grasp the lens.A device history record review and a non-conformance review of the reported lot number was conducted.The deviation review did not reveal any potential contributing factors to the reported complaint and all corresponding production release specifications defined in the device master record were met.Associated cartridge and handpiece were not provided.It is unknown if qualified products were used.A qualified viscoelastic was indicated.Associated cartridge and handpiece were not provided.It is unknown if qualified products were used.Upon return, the lens was observed to be placed into the lens case incorrectly for return resulting in damage.The reported "loading error" complaint was not specified or confirmed.Upon return, the lens was observed to be placed into the lens case incorrectly for return resulting in damage.The reported broken haptic was observed.All lenses are 100% inspected for cosmetic attributes and the damage exhibited by the returned complaint sample would not have met company release criteria.Based on our observation, and the review of manufacturing records, it can be reasonably concluded that the damage is not manufacturing related.It is unknown if the observed lens damage is related to the loading issue.Not enough information was provided to determine if a qualified product combination was used.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.The 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.Failure to follow these steps may cause the lens to advance incorrectly causing delivery issues and/or damage.The ifu instructs: follow the section regarding directions for use for information on the maximum allowed time for the iol to stay in the folded condition.Failure to adhere to manufacturer¿s recommendations may result in iol damage.Ifu note: during lens loading and insertion, do not allow the company iol to remain in a folded condition within the selected iol delivery system for more than 3 minutes prior to completing insertion into the capsular bag.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
