The summary describes a phototherapy device that emits light for treating acne. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven decision-making components. The device description focuses on the light source, optical system, mechanical fixture, and timer.
Yes
It is described as a "Phototherapy System" intended to "provide phototherapeutic light to the body" and "treat dermatological conditions," specifically "moderate inflammatory acne vulgaris." The device description also states it is for "therapy of dermatological disorders." These descriptions clearly indicate its purpose is therapeutic.
No
The device description states its purpose is "therapy of dermatological disorders", not diagnosis. It emits light for treatment, and there is no mention of it analyzing or interpreting data to identify a condition.
No
The device description explicitly details hardware components such as a high intensity lamp, spectral band light source, optical system, mechanical fixture, and timer unit.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "provide phototherapeutic light to the body" to "treat dermatological conditions," specifically "moderate inflammatory acne vulgaris." This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details a light therapy system that emits visible light to treat the skin. It does not mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) which is the core function of an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing samples, detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information.
IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device is a therapeutic device that applies light to the body for treatment.

Device Description
The iClear Therapy System is a high intensity lamp intended for the therapy of dermatological disorders such as moderate inflammatory acne vulgaris by emitting visible light in the violet-blue range with fluency of light ranging between 50-200 mW/cm². The system includes a spectral band light source with spectral emittance concentrated in the violet/blue spectral band and an optical system for controlling spectra and beam parameters of the light source. It also includes a mechanical fixture for holding the light source at an adjustable distance and direction related to the skin treatment area, and an timer unit to indicate the duration of light treatment.

Dear Mr. Kahan:
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. Iisting of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
