Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information provided in sections b.5., d.10., h.3., h.6., and h.11.The product was not returned.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.The account indicated the use of a qualified associated cartridge and viscoelastic.The handpiece indicated is not qualified for use with this lens, with any of the qualified lens/cartridge combinations.The root cause is most likely related to a failure to follow the instructions for use (ifu).The account used an unqualified lens/cartridge/viscoelastic combination.Company provided foldable intraocular lenses (iols) are qualified for use with a company provided 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 account indicated the product was not available to evaluate.The ifu 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 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.
Event or Problem Description
Based on the additional information received, the implant (iol) was damaged during passage of the injector piston, prior to injection into the eye.The iol was not retained, it was discarded.
