ABSTRACT
La entrada en vigor del reglamento sobre productos sanitarios obliga a los clínicos a identificar y reportar a las autoridades sanitarias los posibles incidentes serios derivados de su utilización. Dadas las dudas que pueden suscitarse sobre qué puede o no considerarse incidente serio, un grupo de trabajo, creado por miembros de la Sociedad Española de Retina y Vitreo (SERV) y el clúster de oftalmología y ciencias de la visión (Cluster4Eye), han elaborado un documento que pretende orientar a los oftalmólogos sobre algunos de los incidentes que, en la experiencia del equipo de trabajo, no son habituales o pueden causar un serio daño a la función del paciente. (AU)
