A nurse reported that an intraocular lens (iol) had rift after insertion.The lens was inspected before loading, and the same nurse loaded it as per usual practice, using the same viscoelastic and the same type of cartridge.Additional information has been requested, received and stated the lens was carefully inspected before loading and no tears was observed.After the lens unfolded in the patient eye a significant tear was seen.The tear must have occurred in connection with the loading of the lens.During loading, the utmost care was taken, the optic was not touched, and all contact was made only with the haptics.The company cartridge was used.
