Intended Use
The OCU-FLEX PEDIATRIC APHAKIC (ocufilcon B) Spherical Soft Contact Lens are indicated for daily wear for the correction of hyperopia in pediatric aphakic persons. The lens may be disinfected with chemical (not heat) disinfection system.
Device Description
The OCU-FLEX PEDIATRIC APHAKIC (ocufilcon B) Soft Contact Lens for Daily Wear (lathecut) is fabricated from ocufilcon B which in the dry (unhydrated) state may be machined and polished. The hydrophilic nature of this material allows the lens to become soft and pliable when immersed in an aqueous solution. The aphakic lens designs are made for daily wear for the correction of refractive hyperopia in pediatric aphakic persons. The design elements of the OCU-FLEX PEDIATRIC APHAKIC (ocufileon B) Soft Contact Lens for Daily Wear (lathe-cut) is intended to accommodate pediatric patients. The lens design has a higher power range and smaller lens to compensate for the increased power. In the hydrated state, the lens conforms to the curvature of the cornea and extending slightly beyond the limbus forming a colorless, transparent optical 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 appear somewhat warped however, it will return to its proper configuration when completely rehydrated in the proper storage solution. The non-ionic lens material, ocufilcon B, is a copolymer of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (2-HEMA) methacrylic acid and cross-linked with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA). It consists of 47% ocufilcon B and 53% water by weight when immersed in normal saline solution buffered with sodium bicarbonate. The lenses are available in clear and with a blue visibility-handling tint, Reactive Blue 21.

No
The description focuses on the material properties, manufacturing process, and intended use of a soft contact lens, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No.
The device is indicated for the "correction of hyperopia in pediatric aphakic persons" which suggests a corrective, rather than therapeutic, purpose.

No

Explanation: This device is a contact lens intended for correcting hyperopia in pediatric aphakic persons, which is a therapeutic purpose, not a diagnostic one. It functions to correct vision rather than to detect or diagnose a condition.

No

The device is a physical contact lens made of ocufilcon B, not a software program. The description details the material composition, manufacturing process, and physical properties of the lens.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the "correction of hyperopia in pediatric aphakic persons." This describes a therapeutic or corrective function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details a contact lens designed to physically correct vision by conforming to the cornea. It doesn't mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) which is characteristic of IVDs.
  • Anatomical Site: The device interacts with the cornea, which is an external part of the eye, not an internal biological sample.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies mentioned relate to biocompatibility and safety (cytotoxicity, systemic injection, ocular irritation), which are typical for medical devices that come into contact with the body, but not specifically for diagnostic accuracy.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This contact lens does not perform any such analysis.

(a)
Identification. A soft (hydrophilic) contact lens is a device intended to be worn directly against the cornea and adjacent limbal and scleral areas of the eye to correct vision conditions or act as a therapeutic bandage. The device is made of various polymer materials the main polymer molecules of which absorb or attract a certain volume (percentage) of 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.

Dear Ms. Werber:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set

7

forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4692. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
