    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmic surgery
    • Medical device manufacturing
    • Materials science in healthcare

    Context:

    • Sterile-packed intraocular lenses (IOLs) are critical for modern cataract surgery.
    • Ensuring the quality and safety of implantable medical devices is paramount.
    • Manufacturing processes can introduce subtle but significant defects.

    Purpose:

    • To identify and document manufacturing defects in sterile-packed intraocular lenses.
    • To assess the potential clinical implications of these identified defects.
    • To improve quality control standards for ophthalmic surgical devices.

    Summary:

    • Defects found in ready-to-implant intraocular lenses include sharp-edged positioning holes.
    • Scratched lens surfaces resulting from polishing and drilling were observed.
