Why these products were recalled

Vitrectomy cutters have been found not to be operating within the correct pressure pulse per specification.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
