Intended Use

The RTA 5 & RTA Model E Retinal Thickness Analyzer ("RTA 5 & RTA Model E") is a computerized slitlamp biomicroscope that is intended to provide manual and computerized tomography of the retina in vivo. The RTA 5 & RTA Model E scans successive slit images on the fundus, without the need for a contact lens, to determine the thickness and the inner structure of the retina, both by observation of the slit images and by computer analysis of these images. It is indicated for assessing the area and location of retinal thickness abnormalities, such as thickening due to macular edema and atrophy associated with degenerative diseases, and for visualizing other retinal pathologies.

Device Story

Computerized slitlamp biomicroscope for in vivo retinal tomography. System uses 532 nm green solid-state laser and conventional light sources to project thin slit beams onto fundus. Optical head with scanner and digital camera captures successive slit images; computer system performs analysis to determine retinal thickness and inner structure. Used in clinical settings by eye care professionals. Output includes visual slit images and computerized tomographic data for assessment of retinal thickness abnormalities (e.g., macular edema, atrophy). Enables non-contact visualization and quantification of retinal pathologies, aiding clinical decision-making regarding degenerative eye diseases.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Verification and validation testing performed to assess modifications to the previously cleared predicate device.

Technological Characteristics

Electro-optical system; 532 nm green solid-state laser; slitlamp biomicroscope form factor; patient-contacting materials: C-Flex Opaque (thermoplastic elastomer); non-contact imaging; computerized analysis of slit images.

Indications for Use

Indicated for assessing area and location of retinal thickness abnormalities, including macular edema and atrophy associated with degenerative diseases, and for visualizing retinal pathologies in patients requiring retinal tomography.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An ophthalmoscope is an AC-powered or battery-powered device containing illumination and viewing optics intended to examine the media (cornea, aqueous, lens, and vitreous) and the retina of the eye.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an AC-powered opthalmoscope, a battery-powered opthalmoscope, or a hand-held ophthalmoscope replacement battery, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 886.9.

The RTA 5 & RTA Model E scans successive slit images on the fundus, without the need for a contact lens, to determine the thickness and the inner structure of the retina, both by observation of the slit images and by computer analysis of these images. It is indicated for assessing the area and location of retinal thickness abnormalities, such as thickening due to macular edema and atrophy associated with degenerative diseases, and for visualizing other retinal pathologies. # Device Description, Principles of Operation, and Technological Characteristics: The RTA 5 & RTA Model E is a computerized electro-optical system comprised of two primary components, namely the optical head and the computer system. The main elements of the optical head include laser and conventional light sources, optics, a scanner, and a digital camera. {1}------------------------------------------------ The RTA 5 & RTA Model E is a computerized slitlamp biomicroscope that provides manual and computerized tomography of the retina in vivo. The RTA 5 & RTA Model E scans successive slit images of the fundus to determine the thickness and the inner structure of the retina, both by observation of the slit images and by computer analysis of these images. The RTA 5 & RTA Model E uses a solid-state laser source that emits green light at a wavelength of 532 nm. The beam is focused into a thin slit and, by means of a beam-splitter, is directed toward the eye. The scanner and optics then detect the image of the illuminated portion of the retina and transmit the image to the digital camera. The digital camera then captures the image, where it can then be stored and analyzed by the computer system. ### Substantial Equivalence: The RTA 5 & RTA Model E is a modification to the previously cleared RTA Model D Retinal Thickness Analyzer. The only differences between the previously cleared RTA and the modified RTA 5 & RTA Model E are: - 1. An additional scanning procedure was added with the capability to scan 24 sequential positions with overall coverage of 6x3 mm (HxV) on the retina. The basic scan of 16 sequential positions with overall coverage of 3x3 mm (HxV) on the retina was preserved and has not been changed. - 2. Stereo Angle can be set at 9.8° or 5.4°, compared to 12.2° and 7.4°, respectively. in Model D. - 3. Filament Light Illumination the light illumination intensity on the retina was reduced for patient convenience to allow better penetration through a small pupil and an undilated pupil. - 4. Target Mechanism new target mechanism allows grabbing of fundus image without dark pattern artifact on the fundus image. - 5. Human Engineering and External Product Design - 6. Material change for patient contacting materials from C-Flex R70-091 to C-Flex Opaque, both of which are primarily composed of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). - 7. Software Change Through design control assessment, including verification and validation testing, Talia has demonstrated that the modifications to the cleared RTA do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. Accordingly, the RTA 5 & RTA Model E is substantially equivalent. {2}------------------------------------------------ DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the seal of the Department of Health & Human Services - USA.
