FDA's MAUDE database holds 185 reports that name the brand "Rezoom" (multifocal intraocular lens), received between February 2006 and December 2012; the manufacturer given most often on reports is Advanced Medical Optics. Spellings of one product vary from report to report.

0 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, and none in the 12 months before. FDA releases MAUDE data monthly; reports can arrive months after an event, so the newest months grow in later releases. The event types recorded are injury (98.4%) and malfunction (1.1%); across all intraocular lens reports (product code HQL) death is recorded in 0% and malfunction in 52.8%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.

The device problems coded most often are explanted (74.1%), lens replacement (35.7%) and replace (7%). The patient problems coded most often are halo, visual disturbances and blurred vision. FDA states that "MDR data alone cannot be used to establish rates of events, evaluate a change in event rates over time or compare event rates between devices. The number of reports cannot be interpreted or used in isolation to reach conclusions about the existence, severity, or frequency of problems associated with devices." It adds that the reporting system "has limitations, including the potential submission of incomplete, inaccurate, untimely, unverified, or biased data."
