Event or Problem Description
It was reported that the preloaded johnson and johnson (jnj) multifocal intraocular lens (iol) was implanted into the patient¿s right eye.The patient reported experiencing visual disturbances, specifically severe halos or rings around lights, which began immediately after the implant.She raised concerns about driving safety and noted that her doctor had informed her of the potential for such symptoms but had not anticipated their severity.The patient called back later to report that the iol was explanted because she could not tolerate the halos and had difficulty driving.Johnson and johnson followed up with the doctor¿s office.The doctor involved is dr.(b)(6).They confirmed the iol was explanted and replaced with a non jnj monofocal lens 21.5 diopter.The doctor¿s office explained that the patient was not a good candidate for a multifocal lens to begin with, but the patient was adamant about trying them.The patient experienced halos and never neuro adapted.During the original procedures and the explant there were no complications such as a capsule tear, vitrectomy, or sutures.The explanted iol was likely discarded.No further information is available.
