The provided 510(k) summary does not contain any mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices. The device description and performance study sections are also empty, further indicating a lack of information about advanced computational methods.

Yes
The device is used in the treatment of various medical conditions such as Dry Eye symptoms, ocular dryness secondary to contact lens use, and complications due to Dry Eye after surgery, which are therapeutic applications.

No
The device is a lacrimal plug used in the treatment of various dry eye conditions. Its purpose is therapeutic, not diagnostic, as it treats symptoms and conditions rather than identifying or diagnosing them.

No

The provided text describes a physical medical device (lacrimal plugs) and does not mention any software component.

Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes the treatment of dry eye symptoms and related conditions by physically blocking the tear ducts. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in those samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening

The device is a physical plug inserted into the lacrimal duct, which is a medical device used for treatment, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
