No
The summary describes standard contact lenses and their material properties and compatibility with a cleaning solution. There is no mention of AI or ML.
No
The device is indicated for the correction of refractive ametropia (myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and presbyopia), which is a corrective function, not a therapeutic one. It does not treat or cure a disease.
No
The device is described as RGP Contact Lenses intended for the correction of refractive ametropia (myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and presbyopia). This indicates a therapeutic or corrective purpose, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly states the device is composed of "fluoro silicone acrylate copolymers," which are physical materials used to manufacture contact lenses. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component of the device.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that these are contact lenses used for the correction of refractive errors in the eye. They are placed on the surface of the eye and do not perform any diagnostic tests on bodily samples.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for correcting vision, not for diagnosing a disease or condition based on in vitro testing.
The information provided about the device's composition, intended use, and performance studies (stability, compatibility, microbiology) all relate to the physical and functional properties of a contact lens, not an in vitro diagnostic test.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
BOSTON EQUALENS (itafluorofocon A) and EQUALENS II (oprifocon A) RGP Contact Lenses are indicated for daily wear for the correction of refractive ametropia (myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and presbyopia) in aphakic and not-aphakic persons with nondiseased eyes. The lens may be disinfected using a chemical disinfecting system only.

Summary of Performance Studies
The applicant performed stability, compatibility, and microbiology testing on BOSTON EQUALENS and BOSTON EQUALENS II RGP Contact Lenses wet shipped in Boston Advance Comfort Formula Conditioning Solution and stored for up to 30 days.
Stability/Compatibility:
Silicone acrylate (SA) and fluorosilicone acrylate (FSA) tinted rigid gas permeable contact lenses were subjected to a thirty-day soak in Boston Advance Comfort Formula Conditioning Solution according to the lens compatibility protocol. The average changes for each parameter (diameter, base curve and power), relative to the initial measurements were determined and compared to the DRAFT ISO/CD 8321-2: Optics and Optical Instruments – Contact Lenses- Part 1: Specifications for rigid corneal and scleral contact lenses. After soaking in the contact lens carrying cases at room temperature for thirty days the silicone acrylate and fluoro silicone acrylate rigid gas permeable contact lenses were determined to be physically compatible with Boston Advance Comfort Formula Conditioning Solution.
Microbiology:
A bioburden study was completed. A set of test lenses was cleaned with Boston Laboratory Lens Cleaner and subjected to bioburden testing. In this test, two sets of lenses were tested to validate the storage in Boston Advance Comfort Formula after 30 days. One set was stored dry (control) and the other set was stored in Boston Advance Comfort Formula. This established the "cleanliness" of the test samples prior to entering the stability study. Testing showed that the colony forming units (CFU) per lens was less than 10. The acceptance criteria is 100 CFU per lens.

§ 886.5916 Rigid gas permeable contact lens.
(a)
Identification. A rigid gas permeable contact lens is a device intended to be worn directly against the cornea of the eye to correct vision conditions. The device is made of various materials, such as cellulose acetate butyrate, polyacrylate-silicone, or silicone elastomers, whose main polymer molecules generally do not absorb or attract water.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II if the device is intended for daily wear only.(2) Class III if the device is intended for extended wear.
(c)
Date PMA or notice of completion of a PDP is required. As of May 28, 1976, an approval under section 515 of the act is required before a device described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section may be commercially distributed. See § 886.3.
