Intended Use

The Extreme H2O® 54% (hioxifilcon D) soft contact lens for daily wear is indicated for the correction of visual acuity in aphakic or not-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes that are myopic or hyperopic. The spherical lens may be worn by persons who exhibit astigmatism of 0.75 Diopters or less that does not interfere with visual acuity. The toric lens may be worn by persons who exhibit astigmatism of up to 10.00 Diopters.

Eye care practitioners may prescribe the lens for frequent/planned replacement wear, with cleaning disinfection and scheduled replacement. When prescribed for frequent/planned replacement wear, the lens may be disinfected using a chemical disinfection system.

Device Description

Extreme H2O® 54% (hioxifilcon D) soft contact lenses are hemispherical shells and are available as spherical (G54 13.6 and G54 14.2) or toric (G54 Toric) lens designs. The Extreme H2O® 54% (hioxifilcon D) soft contact lens is fabricated from hioxifilcon D, which is a non-ionic, copolymer of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (2-HEMA) and 2,3-Dihydroxypropyl Methacrylate (Glycerol Methacrylate, GMA) and cross-linked with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA). It consists of 46% hioxifilcon D and 54% water by weight when immersed in normal saline solution buffered with either sodium bicarbonate or sodium borate. The lens is available with a blue visibility handling tint. phthalocyanato (2) - (copper).

In the hydrated state, the lens conforms to the curvature of the eye covering the cornea and extending slightly beyond the limbus forming a colorless, transparent optical surface. The hydrophilic properties of the lens require that it be maintained in a fully hydrated state in a solution compatible with the eye. If the lens dries out, it will become hard and appear somewhat warped. However, it will return to its proper configuration when completely rehydrated in the proper storage solution.

Toxicology:

The following toxicology (1SO) tests were performed on the Extreme H2O® 54%:

  • . Systemic Injection Test - No biological reaction within mice
  • Agar Diffusion Test Non-cytotoxic .
  • Primary Ocular Irritation Non-irritant to rabbits .

Clinical Data:

It was determined that clinical studies were not necessary to establish the safety and effectiveness of the Extreme H2O® 54% soft contact lens. Extreme H2O® 54% lenses are made from Benz-G 4X material (hioxifilcon D). This material is formulated from the same components as the previously cleared materials Benz-G 3X (hioxifilcon B) and Benz-G 5X (hioxifilcon A), but with different ratios of components that bracket the new material between these two cleared materials. The physical/chemical/toxicological results for the Extreme H2O® 54% soft contact lens made from hioxifilcon D indicate that this material falls between the previously cleared 59% Extreme H2O° soft contact lens (hixofilcon A) and the previously cleared Benz-G 3X (hioxifilcon B) in all respects. The Extreme H2O® 54% lens is manufactured using the same cast molding process as our currently marketed 59% Extreme H2O® (See K952620, K992692, and K964528). Therefore, there are no new issues of safety and effectiveness which would require clinical data.

Conclusion:

The information provided in this 510(k) establishes that the Extreme H2O® 54% (hioxifilcon D) soft contact lens is substantially equivalent in terms of the physical/chemical/optical and toxicological performance characteristics, the method of manufacture, packaging, and intended use to the predicate device 59% Extreme H2O® (hioxifilcon A) soft contact lens.
