Intended Use
The INTRALASE® FS Laser is an ophthalmic surgical laser with the following indications for use: - In patients undergoing surgery or other treatment requiring intial lamellar resection of the cornea - In patients undergoing surgery or other treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea to create tunnels for placement of the corneal ring segments - In lamellar keratoplasty and corneal harvesting - In the creation of a corneal flap in patients undergoing LASIK surgery or other treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea - In the creation of a lamellar cut/resection of the cornea for lamellar keratoplasty and in the creation of a penetrating cut/incision for penetrating keratoplasty
Device Description
The INTRALASE FS Laser is a precision ophthalmic surgical laser designed for use in performing lamellar and full thickness or penetrating corneal resections. The cutting action of the INTRALASE FS Laser is achieved through precise individual micro-photodisruptions of tissue, created by tightly focused ultrashort pulses which are delivered through a disposable applanation lens while fixating the eye under very low vacuum.
More Information

No
The description focuses on the laser's mechanical action and precision, with no mention of AI/ML terms, image processing, or data-driven decision making.

No
The device is used for surgical procedures on the cornea rather than for treating a disease or condition itself.

No

The device is an ophthalmic surgical laser used for cutting and resecting corneal tissue, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "precision ophthalmic surgical laser" and describes its physical cutting action using "ultrashort pulses delivered through a disposable applanation lens," indicating it is a hardware device.

Based on the provided information, the INTRALASE® FS Laser is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices intended for use in vitro (outside the body) for the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.
  • INTRALASE FS Laser Function: The description clearly states that the INTRALASE FS Laser is an "ophthalmic surgical laser" used for "performing lamellar and full thickness or penetrating corneal resections." This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's eye (in vivo), not an examination of a specimen outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The indications for use all describe surgical procedures on the cornea.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of analyzing any biological specimens (blood, tissue, etc.) with this device.

Therefore, the INTRALASE FS Laser is a surgical device, not an IVD.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The INTRALASE FS Laser has undergone testing in accordance with applicable safety standards. In addition, the INTRALASE FS was found to perform equivalently to the predicate devices with respect to the creation of partial or full thickness corneal resections in the creation of a lamellar cut/resection of the cornea for lamellar keratoplasty and in the creation of a penetrating cut/incision for penetrating keratoplasty. Thus, the INTRALASE FS Laser and the predicate device have similar safety, effectiveness and performance profiles.
