Action Abbott sent an Advisory Notice dated March 5, 2015, vis Fed Ex overnight to all affected customers. Out of State accounts will be notified through their distributor after letters are translated into local language. Recall notification letters advise customers of issue with CATALYS System using software version 3.00.05. The letter actually covers two issues, the cataract templates being the same for both eyes, and a loss of suction during treatment that may result in scoring the cornea. In both cases the issue is explained and users are advised to use mitigation listed to prevent injury. AMO is developing an update to software that will correct these issues and users will be advised when it is available for installation. All users of the device should be made aware of the issues and each surgeon is requested to sign the acknowledgement form to verify their receipt and understanding. The acknowledgement for should be returned to Abbott Medical Optics per instructions. Questions in the US may be directed to AMO Technical support at 1-855-662-0911.
