    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    EVALUATION: METHOD: LENS WORK ORDER SEARCH, MEDICAL REVIEW. RESULTS: A LENS WORK ORDER SEARCH WAS PERFORMED AND NO SIMILAR COMPLAINTS WERE FOUND WITHIN THE WORK ORDER. VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE RETURNED PRODUCT FOUND NO VISIBLE DAMAGE. THE LENS WAS RETURNED DRY. THE LENS WAS REHYDRATED IN BSS FOR RE-MEASUREMENT. THE LENS LENGTH WAS MEASURED AND THE RESULT OF THE MEASUREMENT WAS COMPARED AGAINST THE ORIGINAL VALUE AND THE LENS WAS FOUND TO BE IN SPECIFICATION. MEDICAL REVIEW - ACCORDING TO USE FMEA (FAILURE MODES AND EFFECT ANALYSIS) IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED THAT EXCESSIVE VAULTING IS A CONSEQUENCE OF A WRONG LENS USE FAILURE MODE (I.E. IMPROPER WHITE TO WHITE MEASUREMENT, VARIABILITY OF THE WHITE TO WHITE MEASUREMENTS BASED UPON DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES UTILIZED, IMPROPER SULCUS TO SULCUS MEASUREMENT (IF UBM USED), AND PATIENT CONDITION; POOR CORRELATION OF WHITE TO WHITE MEASUREMENT AND LENGTH OF CILIARY SULCUS IN AN INDIVIDUAL CASE; IRREGULAR CILIARY SULCUS OR CILIARY SULCUS CYST). SEVERAL CONDITIONS MAY ARISE FROM THIS EVENT (I.E. PUPILLARY BLOCK, MALIGNANT GLAUCOMA, INCREASED IOP ETC.). TO PREVENT ANY OF THESE COMPLICATIONS FROM OCCURRING, THE MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDS THAT THE LENS BE EXPLANTED AND/OR EXCHANGED WITH THE RIGHT SIZE ONCE THE SURGEON DETERMINES THAT THIS CONDITION MAY AFFECT THE OUTCOME OF THE PATIENT'S VISION. CONCLUSIONS: BASED ON THE COMPLAINT HISTORY, WORK ORDER SEARCH, MEDICAL REVIEW AND THE EVALUATION OF THE RETURNED PRODUCT, THE ROOT CAUSE OF EXCESSIVE VAULTING HAS BEEN DETERMINED TO BE RELATED TO THE INACCURACY OF THE WHITE TO WHITE MEASUREMENT OR A MISMATCH BETWEEN WHITE TO WHITE AND THE SULCUS TO SULCUS DIAMETER. (B)(4).
