The provided document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for a contact lens, specifically the VISTAKON® (galyfilcon A) Contact Lens. It details the device's characteristics, indications for use, comparison to a predicate device, and the non-clinical and clinical studies conducted. The purpose of a 510(k) is to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than to prove safety and effectiveness from scratch through detailed performance criteria against absolute benchmarks. Therefore, the "acceptance criteria" and "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in the context of this document relate to its comparison to the predicate device and adherence to established clinical guidelines for contact lens studies.
Here's an analysis of the provided information:
1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
For a 510(k) application for a contact lens, the "acceptance criteria" are implicitly defined by demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device. This is achieved by showing comparable safety and effectiveness, which includes similar material properties, chemical and physical characteristics, and clinical performance (e.g., adverse reaction rates, visual acuity, comfort, fit).
Acceptance Criteria Category (Implied for 510(k)) | Reported Device Performance (VISTAKON® (galyfilcon A) Contact Lens) |
---|---|
Material Composition | Galyfilcon A copolymer (similar to predicate's lotrafilcon A, both FDA Group I) |
Physical/Chemical Properties | Water Content: 48% (Labeled 47%) - Predicate: 23% (Labeled 24%) |
Refractive Index @ 20°C: 1.4055 (Labeled 1.41) - Predicate: 1.4263 (Labeled 1.43) | |
Dk (edge corrected): 55.4 (Labeled 60) - Predicate: 141.3 (Labeled 140) | |
Dk (non-edge corrected): 68.3 (Labeled 70) - Predicate: 167.6 (NA) | |
Base Curve, mm: 8.35 (Labeled 8.3) - Predicate: 8.47 (Labeled 8.4) | |
Diameter, mm: 14.11 (Labeled 14.0) - Predicate: 13.8 (Labeled 13.8) | |
Power, D: -1.03 (Labeled -1.00) - Predicate: -1.11 (Labeled -1.00) | |
Note: While some values differ, the intent is to show the device functions as expected within its classification and intended use. | |
Biocompatibility/Toxicity | Not toxic and not irritating (based on in vitro and in vivo preclinical toxicology and biocompatibility tests). |
Clinical Safety & Efficacy | "Similar overall performance in the clinically relevant areas of vision, health, comfort and fit as compared to concurrent controls when used under daily wear conditions." (Implies comparable adverse event rates and acceptable clinical outcomes to the predicate). |
Indications for Use | Spherical, Multifocal, Toric, Toric-Multifocal for daily wear, correction of refractive ametropia, presbyopia, astigmatism, with UV blocking. (Comparable to predicate and within general soft contact lens indications). |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Sample Size (Clinical Study): At least 50 patients (with a 2:1 ratio of subject device to predicate device).
- Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin.
- Study Design: Prospective ("A three-month clinical study was completed to evaluate the safety and efficacy...").
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)
This information is not provided in the document. For contact lens studies, "ground truth" typically refers to objective clinical measurements and expert clinical evaluations by ophthalmologists or optometrists, but the number and qualifications of such experts are not specified in this summary.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
This information is not explicitly provided in the document. Clinical studies typically involve expert evaluations, but the specific adjudication method for discrepancies (if any) is not detailed.
5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance
A Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study is not applicable here as this is a contact lens, not an AI-powered diagnostic device that would involve human "readers" interpreting cases with or without AI assistance. The study compares two contact lenses.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
This is not applicable. The device is a physical contact lens, not an algorithm. Its performance is evaluated through clinical use by human wearers. Non-clinical (in vitro) tests were performed on the material itself.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
For the clinical study, the "ground truth" and evaluation metrics included:
- Clinical Outcomes Data: Adverse reactions, keratometry changes, reasons for discontinuations, number of reasons for unscheduled lens replacements, and overall clinical performance in terms of vision, health, comfort, and fit.
- Expert Clinical Evaluation: Implicitly, the "clinically relevant areas of vision, health, comfort and fit" would have been assessed by eye care professionals.
For non-clinical testing:
- Laboratory-measured properties: Material composition, water content, refractive index, Dk values, base curve, diameter, power.
- Toxicology and Biocompatibility Tests: These would involve standardized assays and observations to determine toxicity and irritation, which serve as "ground truth" for these specific aspects.
8. The sample size for the training set
This contact lens is not an AI algorithm, so there is no "training set" in the machine learning sense. The manufacturing process and formulation were developed through traditional R&D, not algorithmic training.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable, as there is no "training set" for an AI algorithm. The performance of the contact lens product is evaluated against its intended use and comparison to a predicate device.
§ 886.5925 Soft (hydrophilic) contact lens.
(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.
