Description of Event or Problem · 1

LENS COMES PRELOADED TO AVOID ANY HUMAN TOUCH AND PREVENT SCRATCHES ON THE LENS SURFACE. IT IS SUPPOSED TO FOLD IN A WAY THAT FACILITATES INSERTION. THE FRONT HAPTIC WAS BENT TO THE RIGHT SIDE, BUT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FOLDED TO THE LEFT SIDE. I HAD TO STOP INSERTION AND MANUALLY REPOSITION THE HAPTIC PROPERLY IN THE BAG. THERE WAS NO RISK OR DANGER TO THE PATIENT BUT THE PRELOADED IMPLANT IS SUPPOSED TO MAKE INSERTION EASIER. IN THIS CASE IT DID NOT FULFILL ITS PURPOSE.
