Reason for recall
Weld protrusion/physical gap between the housing and phaco pack cover, may exceed design specification, which could lead to priming cycle failure and/or suboptimal vacuum delivered to the phacoemulsification and irrigation/aspiration handpieces during surgery, which could result in surgical delay and/or longer surgical time, which could result in transient corneal edema.
Device recalls are issued when a component, software or design fault could cause the device to fail or give wrong readings. Many are corrections applied in the field rather than physical returns.
