Additional information: the device was not available; therefore, product testing on the actual device could not be performed.The device history record review of the manufacturing lot was performed and there were non-conformities found to be related to the reported event.A review of the device labeling was completed.Hyphema, elevated iop and decreased/impaired vision are identified in the labeling as known inherent risks of cataract/trabecular micro-bypass stent procedure.The ifu adequately provides instructions for stent implantation, precautions, and warnings for the proper use and handling of the device.Mfr# reference: (b)(4).
