The summary provides a basic description of an electrically powered ophthalmic device for vitreous removal and does not mention any AI or ML components, image processing, or performance studies related to algorithmic analysis.
Yes
The device is intended to remove vitreous matter from the vitreous cavity, which is a therapeutic intervention.
No
The device is described as an ophthalmic device intended to remove vitreous matter, indicating a therapeutic or interventional function, not a diagnostic one. There is no mention of it detecting, analyzing, or identifying a condition.
No
The description explicitly states the device is an "electrically powered ophthalmic device," which implies hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "remove vitreous matter from the vitreous cavity." This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description reinforces the intended use as an electrically powered ophthalmic device for removing vitreous matter.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) in vitro (outside the body) to provide diagnostic information. IVDs are used to diagnose diseases or conditions based on the analysis of these samples.
Therefore, this device is an ophthalmic surgical device, not an IVD.

Dear Mr. Jack Howard:
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.
