Hazard
VisuMax devices with software version 2.10.13 and activated SW-Module ReLEx (SMILE) option may experience a software issue. In case of a suction loss during treatment the software allows the user to choose the option immediate restart or restart treatment. Suction loss can occur in phase 1 through phase 5. The software defect refers to Phase 2 (between 10% and 100% of lower lenticule cut) only. The software offers a flap cut, but due to the software issue it performs a cap cut instead of a flap cut if the user proceeds.
