Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Only a pulled out haptic was returned adhered by solution to the lens case base.The rest of the lens was not returned for evaluation.Solution was dried on the pulled out haptic.The pulled out haptic has a bulbous area which is indicative that a weld was performed during the manufacturing process.Associated products were not provided.It is unknown if qualified products were used.The company lens model is only qualified for use in the company (a) and (b) cartridges.The reported haptic damage was observed.Only a pulled out haptic was returned adhered by solution to the lens case base.The rest of the lens was not returned for evaluation.Solution was dried on the pulled out haptic.All lenses are 100% inspected for cosmetic attributes and the damage exhibited by the returned complaint sample would not have met company's release criteria.Based on our observation, and the review of manufacturing records, it can be reasonably concluded that the damage is not manufacturing related.The presence of surgical solution and the condition of the sample suggest that the damage may have occurred due to handling during the surgical procedure.Associated products were not provided.It is unknown if qualified products were used.Company foldable intraocular lenses (iols) are qualified for use with a 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 company instructions for use (ifu) have specific lens loading instructions for multipiece lenses.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 ovd-filled cartridge (diagram provided).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 as shown.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.Haptic manufacturing is a validated process with multiple inspections to verify the quality of the produced haptic material.These inspections include a verification of the dimensional accuracy, tensile strength, flexibility and cosmetic appearance.The inspections ensure that the material meets all required specifications before it is allocated for use.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).H.10 reflects all related report numbers associated with this product event that have been submitted at this time.
