Action
On October 31, 2006, a product notification letter was mailed to all customers in the United States via overnight carrier (Federal Express). Included in this correspondence is a listing of the serial numbers and the quantities of intraocular lenses shipped. This listing will act as your Facsimile Form to be returned to AMO for accountability of the lenses shipped to your facility. AMO will ensure the effectiveness of the recall by using a return facsimile form to capture the status of each of the lenses. AMO will provide updates to the FDA, including all information regarding the recall effectiveness and test results obtained as part of our continuing investigation, as part of the recall progress reports.
