Beaver Visitec recalls specific lots of Soft Tip Cannula for potential eye injury if the silicone tip breaks off during use. Affected lots include 60047S4, 60060S9, and 600623S.
Certain lots are missing a protective sheath component over the silicone tip, which may result in the silicone tip breaking or detaching at the metal tube component. If the tip becomes detached during a procedure while in the eye, the fragment will need to be retrieved to mitigate the possibility of injury.
