No
The provided text describes a laser device for various medical procedures and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is used to treat various medical conditions, including diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, retinal tears and detachments, AMD, and tumors, which are all therapeutic applications.

No

The device is described as a "semiconductor-based laser" for delivering "continuous wave green laser light" for various treatments, such as retinal photocoagulation and laser trabeculoplasty. Its intended uses are all therapeutic procedures (e.g., "Retinal Photocoagulation," "Laser Trabeculoplasty," "Iridotomy"), rather than for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly states that the OcuLight GL/GLx is a "semiconductor-based laser" that delivers laser light, indicating it is a hardware device.

Based on the provided information, the IRIDEX OcuLight GL/GLx is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The OcuLight GL/GLx is a laser system that delivers light energy directly to anatomical sites (retina, skin, ear, nose, throat) for therapeutic purposes (photocoagulation, laser treatments, surgical procedures). It is used to treat conditions, not to analyze samples from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended uses listed are all direct treatments or procedures performed on the patient's body.

Therefore, the IRIDEX OcuLight GL/GLx falls under the category of a therapeutic medical device, not an IVD.

Predicate Devices

The OcuLight GL/GLx laser systems are substantially equivalent to other currently legally marketed ophthalmology laser devices including Ocutiight SLASLASE systems and the Lumenis Novus Spectra (K022327).

Device Description

The OcuLight GL/GLx is a semiconductor-based laser that delivers true continuous wave green laser (532 nm) light for the indication of retinal photocoagulation, laser trabeculoplasty, the treatment of vascular and pigmented skin lesions, and other laser treatments. Visible red (630-650 nm) semiconductor diode laser is used for aiming.

Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence

The OcuLight GL/GLx is indicated for retinal photocoagulation, laser trabeculoplasty, iridotomy, iridoplasty, the treatment of vascular and pigmented skin lesions, stapedotomy, stapedectomy, and other ENT applications. The expansion of the indications for use for the proposed OcuLight does not result in a change to the hardware or firmware for the currently marketed OcuLight GL/GLx.

The OcuLight SL/SLx Laser Systems are indicated for Retinal Photocoagulation, Laser Trabeculoplasty, Transscleral Cyclophotocoagulation (TSCPC), Transscleral Retinal Photocoagulation (TSRPC), Iridotomy, and Iridoplasty. The OcuLight SL/SLx diode laser systems feature a combination of pulsed diode laser and optical fiber technology to deliver the correct balance of 810 nm wavelength, spot size, and pulse duration for effective laser photocoagulation.

The Lumenis Novus Spectra Diode Laser System is indicated for many Ophthalmic, Ears, Nose and Throat (including stapedectomy), Dermatological and Dentistry applications. The Lumenis Novus Spectra delivers the same 532nm wavelength, pulses of equivalent duration, treatment spots of equivalent size, and energy densities equivalent to the OcuLight GL/GLx.

Conclusion

The OcuLight GL/GLx is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices currently legally marketed for stapedotomy, stapedectomy, and other ENT applications as shown in the Indications for Use statement.

Dear Mr. Jossy:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device we have 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 If your device to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can may be subject to back at Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean r that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act that I D.
