Intended Use
The EagleVision Gellansert is intended to temporarily block tear drainage by the occlusion of the canaliculus in order to: - Determine the potential effectiveness of permanent occlusion, - Temporarily treat dry eye syndrome, and the dry eye components of various ocular surface diseases, - Increase retention of ocular medications - Temporarily treat contact lens intolerance secondary to dry eye, and - Treat dry eye after surgery.
Device Description
EagleVision Gellanserts are intended to temporarily block tear drainage by occlusion of the canaliculus. EagleVision Gellanserts are made of a hydrophilic, resorbable material, and are designed to expand only laterally after insertion into the canaliculus, so that only one size is needed to occlude most patients' lacrimal systems. The EagleVision Gellanserts are designed to expand and fit virtually all patient anatomies from 0.3mm up to 1.1 mm, so multiple inserts in one canaliculus are generally not necessary. There are five inserts per sterile pouch, so that one EagleVision Gellansert can be placed in each punctum with one additional EagleVision Gellansert in case one is dropped or mishandled.

No
The device description focuses on the physical properties and mechanism of action of a resorbable implant, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

Yes

Explanation: The device is intended to treat dry eye syndrome, increase retention of ocular medications, and treat contact lens intolerance and post-surgical dry eye, all of which are therapeutic uses.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is intended to "Determine the potential effectiveness of permanent occlusion." This indicates a diagnostic purpose to assess a patient's suitability for a permanent solution.

No

The device description clearly states that the device is a physical implant made of a hydrophilic, resorbable material, designed to be inserted into the canaliculus. This is a hardware device, not software.

Based on the provided information, the EagleVision Gellansert is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • EagleVision Gellansert's Function: The EagleVision Gellansert is a physical implant designed to be inserted into the canaliculus to block tear drainage. It directly interacts with the body's anatomy to achieve a therapeutic effect (treating dry eye, increasing medication retention, etc.). It does not analyze or test any bodily fluids or tissues in vitro (outside the body).

The intended use and device description clearly indicate a therapeutic device for physical intervention, not a diagnostic tool that analyzes samples.

Description of the Device Subject to Premarket Notification:

EagleVision Gellanserts are intended to temporarily block tear drainage by occlusion of the canaliculus. EagleVision Gellanserts are made of a hydrophilic, resorbable material, and are designed to expand only laterally after insertion into the canaliculus, so that only one size is needed to occlude most patients' lacrimal systems. The EagleVision Gellanserts are designed to expand and fit virtually all patient anatomies from 0.3mm up to 1.1 mm, so multiple inserts in one canaliculus are generally not necessary. There are five inserts per sterile pouch, so that one EagleVision Gellansert can be placed in each punctum with one additional EagleVision Gellansert in case one is dropped or mishandled.

INDICATION FOR USE:

The EagleVision Gellansert® has the same primary intended use as the predicated devices. The EagleVision Gellansert is intended to temporarily block tear drainage by the occlusion of the canaliculus in order to:

  • Determine the potential effectiveness of permanent occlusion, .
  • Temporarily treat dry eye syndrome, and the dry eye components of various . ocular surface diseases,
  • Increase retention of ocular medications .
  • Temporarily treat contact lens intolerance secondary to dry eye, and .
  • Treat dry eye after surgery. .

Contraindications:

EagleVision Gellanserts have the same primary contraindications as the predicate devices. EagleVision Gellanserts are contraindicated for use in patients with known gellan sensitivity, infectious conjunctivitis, dacrocycstitis, inflammation of the eyelid, infected eves, or epiphora.

MATERIALS:

Gellan is an anionic polysaccharide that gels in the presence of cations such as Sodium (Na ) and Calcium (Ca *). It is soluble in water, and hydrates rapidly in solution. As the gel hydrates, it also expands (up to 500% or more depending on the concentration of gellan and the strength of the ionic bonds). After hydration, the gellan becomes pliable and malleable to conform to the inside of the volume that constrains it (assuming the volume is less than or equal to the physical size of the gel in its hydrated state). 21 CFR 172.665 states that gellan gum may be safely used in food, in accordance with the following conditions:

    1. The additive is of a high molecular weight, produced from Pseudomonas elodea (P. elodea) by a pure culture fermentation process, and purified by recovery with isopropyl alcohol (IPA).
    1. The strain of P. elodea is non-pathogenic and nontoxic in man and animals

2

    1. The additive is produced by a process that renders it free of viable cells of P. elodea
    1. The additive meets the following specifications:
    • a. A tough worm-like gel forms when a 1% solution is extruded through a wide bore pipet into a 10% Calcium Chloride bath
    • b. A firm gel forms when 0.50 grams of Sodium Chloride is added (under 80 °C heat for 1 minute) to the 1% solution above.
    • Residual IPA does not exceed 0.075% ﻦ
    1. The additive is intended for use in accordance with good manufacturing practices

Gellan is also listed in:

  • . USP-National Formulary (NF 22) 71010-52-1
  • The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Chemical Substances Inventory 트
  • I The Canadian Non-Domestic Substances List (NDSL)
  • The European Inventory of existing Commercial Chemical Substances (EINECS) 트

In addition to the above, Toxicological Studies performed by the gellan manufacturer demonstrate the following Safety Data for gellan:

  • Oral dosage - rat LD50: >5,000 mg/kg
  • Inhalation -rat LC50 (4-hr): >6mg/L (nominal) .
  • 트 Eye irritation - rabbit: nonirritating
  • 트 Skin irritation - rabbit: nonirritating
  • No SARA Hazard notifications are applicable for this material 이

DESIGN FEATURES:

The design features of the EagleVision Gellanserts raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness. EagleVision Gellanserts consist of a length of rigid, hydrophilic, resorbable material. Common forceps (jewelers, collagen or otherwise) are used in the insertion of EagleVision Gellanserts. The EagleVision Gellanserts are provided sterile. EagleVision Gellanserts expand to accommodate different patient physiologies and achieve occlusion of the punctum and/or canaliculus. This device is sub-punctal, to limit contact and possible irritation to the eye due to abrasion.

Comparison of the design features of the EagleVision Gellanserts to the predicate devices are given in the table below.
