More Information

No
The device is a replacement blade for a microkeratome and the description focuses on material and packaging, with no mention of AI/ML or related concepts.

No.
This device is a replacement blade for a Microkeratome, not the therapeutic device itself. The Microkeratome is used in surgical procedures, but the blade alone does not provide therapy.

No.
The device is a replacement blade for a microkeratome, which is used for surgical procedures on the cornea, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device is a physical blade made of stainless steel, intended for use with a microkeratome. It is a hardware component, not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The Model 700700 M2 Compatible Microkeratome Blade is a surgical blade used to cut the cornea during eye surgery. It is used on the body, not to test specimens from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's a replacement blade for a microkeratome, which is a surgical instrument.

Therefore, based on the provided information, this device falls under the category of a surgical instrument, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.
