Alcon received complaints for the constellation pneumatic handpiece dsp product number 725.01 related to the tip dislodging from the hand piece during the surgical procedure. if the tip becomes dislodged from the hand piece while in the eye a patient injury may occur. the constellation pneumatic handpiece and tips are unlikely to cause injury when tips are attached in accord with the directions for use. however review of the complaint cases to date indicates potential for isolated instances of detachment to occur if the tip has not been correctly attached. therefore alcon has decided to halt manufacturing of this product and remove any remaining lots from the market.
