Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information was provided in h.3., h.6.And h.11.The product was not returned for analysis.Only photo was returned.The reported complaint was observed on the returned photo.A product history record review and a non-conformance review of the reported lot number was conducted.No deviations were identified and all corresponding production release specifications defined in the device master record were met.Provided photo shows what appears to be an implanted iol (intraocular lens) on the screen.It appears that the lens is viewed through a slit lamp.The lens is looking blue.The observed condition is most likely polychromatic sheen.The root cause is deemed to be manufacturing related.Complaints have been received describing that lenses were reported by doctors for the presence of a ¿polychromatic sheen¿ visible.The cause of ¿sheen¿ or ¿film-like¿ appearance is a result of a change in the positioning of the iol during the manufacturing process and is not associated with any foreign material or contamination.The observation has been reported clinically and confirmed in laboratory settings to disappear over time following implantation.The appearance is a result of a temporary change in the surface of the iol that occurs during the delivery process, which is only visible under certain orientations and illumination settings.This resolves once the iol is delivered and exposed to body temperature over time.There are no adverse impacts or lasting effects on the iol or the patient.Based on the results of the product investigation and testing, it was confirmed there are no adverse events or clinical impact on vision associated with this finding.Based on the results from the product history record, the products met release criteria.The manufacturer internal reference number is: (b)(4).
