Vortex Surgical Inc. is voluntarily recalling 221 units of the 25ga Illuminated Flex-Tip Laser Probe (Catalog Number VS0135.25). This recall was initiated because some probes in the affected lot do not pass through a 25-gauge cannula smoothly. If this mechanical resistance occurs during a procedure, it could result in surgical delays or complications.
The probes may fail to pass through the surgical cannula smoothly, potentially interfering with precision during delicate eye surgeries. No injuries have been reported to date.
