By UNICON Optical Co., LTD. 510(k) number: K141917 Primary Predicate - "IntelliWave4 with HPT (safrofilcon A) Silicone Hydrogel Contact Lens" . by Art Optical Contact Lens, Inc. 510(k) number: K152046 Reference Predicate ## Device Description: The Etafilcon with Tangible """ Coating (etafilcon A) Soft (Hydrophilic) Daily Wear Contact Lens is available in an aspheric design and manufactured using the cast-molding process. The lenses consist of 58% water and 42% etafilcon A. The lens material is a random copolymer composed of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and methacrylic acid (MAA), which are crosslinked with Trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TMPTMA) and Ethylene Glycol Dimethacrylate (EGDMA) via UV photo-polymerization. The Etafilcon with Tangible™ Coating (etafficon A) Soft (Hydrophilic) Daily Wear Contact Lenses are available in a light blue tint ([Phthalocyaninato(2-)]copper) for visibility and handling. The lenses also contain a Benzotriazole ultraviolet (UV) absorbing monomer to block UV radiation. The average transmittance characteristics are less than 5% in the UVB range (280 to 315 mm), and less than 30% in the UVA range (316 to 380nm). The Etafilcon with Tangible "M Coating (etafilcon A) Soft (Hydrophilic) Daily Wear Contact Lens is treated to incorporate Tangible TM Coating Technology-which is a thin biocompatible polymer that is covalently bonded to the surface of the contact lens. In the hydrated state, the lens conforms to the curvature of the eye covering the cornea and extending slightly beyond the limbus forming a colorless, transparent optical surface. The (etafilcon A) soft hydrophilic contact lens has an aspheric back surface. The hydrophilic properties of the lens require that it be maintained in a fully hydrated state in a solution compatible with the eye. If the lens dries out, it will become hard and appear somewhat warped; it will return to its proper configuration when completely rehydrated in the proper storage solution. The lenses are supplied sterile in blister packages containing a buffered saline solution. Package labeling is printed with appropriate lot numbering, expiration dating and lens parameter identification. Expiration dating has been established based on studies of product stability, package integrity, and validation of the sterilization process. {5}------------------------------------------------ The Physical properties of the lens are: | Refractive Index (wet) | 1.404 | |----------------------------|----------------------------------------| | Visible Light Transmission | >90% | | Surface Character | hydrophilic | | Water Content | 58 ±2% | | Specific Gravity | 1.14 (hydrated) | | Oxygen Permeability | 24.1 x 10-11 (cm²/sec) (ml O2/ml-mmHg) | The lenses will be manufactured in the aspheric, toric, and multifocal design configurations with the following properties: | • Chord Diameter | 12.0 mm to 15.00 mm | |--------------------|------------------------------------| | • Center Thickness | 0.01 mm to 0.50 mm | | • Base Curve | 7.85 mm to 10.0 mm | | • Power Range | +6.00D to -10.00D (in 0.25D steps) | | - Cylinder | -0.75D to -2.50D (in 0.25D steps) | | - Axis | 10° to 180° (in 10° steps) | | - Add | +1.00D to +2.50D (in 0.50D steps) | ## Indication for Use: The Etafilcon with Tangible "1" Coating (etafilcon A) ASPHERIC Soft (Hydrophilic) Daily Wear Contact Lens is indicated for the optical correction of refractive ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) in phakic or aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes who may have 1.00 D or less of astigmatism. The Etafilcon with Tangible™ Coating (etafilcon A) TORIC Soft (Hydrophilic) Daily Wear Contact Lens is indicated for the optical correction of refractive ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) in phakic or aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes who may have 5.00 D or less of astigmatism. The Etafilcon with Tangible 101 Coating (etafilcon A) MULTIFOCAL Soft (Hydrophilic) Daily Wear Contact Lens is indicated for daily wear for the optical correction of refractive ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) and/or presbyopia in phakic or aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes who may need up to 2.50 D of ADD power and may have 1.00 D or less of astigmatism. Eye care professionals may prescribe the lenses for daily disposable wear. The contact lenses should be discarded upon removal. ## Testing: - Non-clinical Testing A series of in vitro and in vivo preclinical toxicology and biocompatibility tests were performed to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Etafilcon with Tangible " 1 Coating (etafilcon A) Soft (Hydrophilic) Daily Wear Contact Lenses packaged in blister packaging. All non-clinical toxicology tests were conducted in accordance with the GLP regulation. All other testing was conducted according to valid scientific protocols. {6}------------------------------------------------ Test results of the non-clinical testing on the Etafilcon with Tangible™ Coating (etafilcon A) Soft (Hydrophilic) Daily Wear Contact Lenses demonstrate that: - Lenses supplied in blister packages are sterile for the indicated shelf-life, ● - The finished lenses, packaging material and extracts are non-toxic and non-irritating, and - Lens physical and material properties are consistent with currently ● marketed lenses. #### Clinical Testing The safety and effectiveness of finished contact lenses manufactured from the (etafilcon A) material has been established previously through clinical performance testing. ## Conclusions Drawn from Studies #### Validity of Scientific Data Several laboratories under Good Laboratory Practice regulations conducted toxicology studies, Microbiology, chemistry, shelf-life stability studies and followed scientific protocols. The data were determined to be scientifically valid under 21 CFR 860.7 ### Substantial Equivalence Information presented in this Premarket Notification establishes that the Etafilcon with Tangible™ Coating (etafilcon A) Soft (Hydrophilic) Daily Wear Contact Lens is as safe and effective as the predicate device when used in accordance with the labeled directions for use and for the requested indication. #### Risks and Benefits The risks of the subject device are the same as those normally attributed to the wearing of daily wear soft contact lenses. The benefits to the patient are the same as those for other soft contact lenses. {7}------------------------------------------------ ### Substantial Equivalence: The following matrix illustrates the production and material characteristics of the Etafilcon with Tangible™ Coating (etafilcon A) Soft (Hydrophilic) Daily Wear Contact Lens, as well as the predicate devices. # Substantial Equivalence Matrix | | Etafilcon with TangibleTM<br>Coating (etafilcon A) Soft<br>(Hydrophilic) Contact Lens<br>for Daily Wear<br>New Device | UNICON (etafilcon A) Soft<br>(Hydrophilic) Contact Lens<br>for Daily Wear<br>Predicate Device<br>510(k) K141917 | Art Optical<br>IntelliWave4 with HPT,<br>Silicone Hydrogel<br>(safrofilcon A)<br>Predicate Device<br>510(k) K152046 | |---------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Intended Use | Indicated for the correction of<br>ametropia (myopia and hyperopia)<br>and/or are presbyopic in aphakic or<br>non-aphakic persons with non-<br>diseased eye who may have 5.00 D or<br>less astigmatism. | Indicated for the correction of<br>ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) in<br>aphakic or non-aphakic persons with<br>non-diseased eye who may have 1.00<br>D or less astigmatism. | Indicated for daily wear for the<br>correction of visual acuity in aphakic<br>and not apjakic persons with non-<br>diseased eyes with myopia or<br>hyperopia.
