It was reported that during implantation of a preloaded monofocal intraocular lens (iol) in a patient's right eye, a capsular rupture occurred either during lens unfolding within the capsular bag or upon withdrawal of the inserter tip.The account suspected a possible sub-incisional capsular puncture; however, the physician was uncertain of the exact cause, noting it may have been related to excess ophthalmic viscosurgical device (ovd) or contact with the inserter tip.The lens was fully delivered, after which the incision was enlarged to allow explantation by cutting and removing the lens.A non-johnson & johnson 3-piece iol was implanted as a replacement.Sutures were required, which was not part of the physician¿s standard practice.The device was discarded and is not available for evaluation.No additional information was provided.
