Manufacturer Narrative

The lens associated with this event was not available to be returned for evaluation.The lot history, trend analysis, risk analysis and directions for use review are considered acceptable, with the product performing within anticipated rates.The most probable root cause is "operational context".User related factors (such as loading or handling techniques) and/or procedural factors (such as lens and inserter interaction) might have contributed to the event.No corrective action is necessary at this time.A supplement report will be submitted if the sample is returned for evaluation.
