Additional Manufacturer Narrative
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.Associated products were not provided.It is unknown if qualified products were used.The product investigation could not identify a root cause for the reported complaint.Information was provided on the attached completed questionnaire that the product is not available for return.Not enough information was provided to determine if a qualified associated products were used.The instructions for use (ifu) instructs that an company qualified delivery system and viscoelastic combination should be used.Company foldable intraocular lens (iols) are qualified for use with an company qualified delivery system (handpiece and cartridge) and ophthalmic viscosurgical device (ovd) combination.The use of an unqualified combination may cause damage to the lens and potential complications during the implantation process.The ifu instructs to completely fill the cartridge with ovd immediately prior to loading and delivery of the lens.Do not attempt to load the lens without adequate ovd in the device.Not adequately filling the device with viscoelastic will result in inadequate coverage of lens and the lens fold path with ovd, which may result in damage.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 ifu instructs: follow the section regarding directions for use for information on the maximum allowed time for the iol to stay in the folded condition.Failure to adhere to manufacturer¿s recommendations may result in iol damage.Ifu note: during lens loading and insertion, do not allow the company iol to remain in a folded condition within the selected iol delivery system for more than 3 minutes prior to completing insertion into the capsular bag.Use the company cartridge at operating room temperatures between 18 degree celsius (64 degree fahrenheit) and 23 degree celsius (73 degree fahrenheit).Temperature greater than 23 degree celsius (73 degree fahrenheit).If the operating room temperature is too high (greater 23 degree celsius / 73 degree fahrenheit) lens folding consistency is negatively affected, the lens is more adherent and this may inhibit lens advancement and cause 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.
