Device available for evaluation? yes.Returned to manufacturer on: 06/01/2018.Device returned to manufacturer? yes.Device evaluation: the returned sample consisted of an activated syringe (containing approximately 0.1ml of expellable solution), the plunger rod (screwed into the backside of the plunger) and the customer¿s cannula with protection sheath.The assembled syringe was placed into the product box along with a small glass vial.The vial contained the recovered fiber.The dark fiber recovered by the customer was visually and spectrally similar to one of the dark fibers observed on the outside of the hub of the customer¿s cannula.Dark cellulose material is not used in the production materials, worker clothing, worker¿s protection gear or cleaning materials used at the production site.Healon products are filtered through a 5m filter immediately prior to filling the glass cylinders and the fiber recovered by the customer was 10840m x 20m.This contamination found suggests it came from a source other that the healon product.Therefore, no probable cause for the observation has been determined by this investigation.Manufacturing record review: manufacturing record review of the production order and related document revealed that the product was manufactured and released according to specification.There was no discrepancy found during the review.Labeling review: the directions for use (dfu) was reviewed.The dfu adequately provides instructions and precautions for the proper use and handling of the product.Conclusion: based on the investigation results there is no indication of a product quality deficiency.All pertinent information available to johnson & johnson surgical vision, inc.Has been submitted.
