Just recently I was reading about blind people who got experimental eye implants several years ago. They're having serious problems now because the company stopped supporting the implants.

...how. I make plastic medical devices and I need to support them for 10 years by law, since that is considered "lifetime" for it. How is a company not supporting them before the lifetime of the product (i.e. before they need to take them out) and gets away with it?

If your company goes bankrupt before 10 years is up, what happens?
