Intended Use
The Vidco Ophthalmoscope is intended to be used by trained personnel to examine the cornea, aqueous, lens, vitreous, and retina of the eye.
Device Description
The Precision Optics Corporation Video Ophthalmoscope is a hand held indirect and direct monocular device for use by trained personnel for viewing / examining the cornea, agueous, lens, vitreous, and retina of the patient's eye(s). The viewing path is split in two via a beamsplitter to provide for direct viewing by the trained personnel as well as simultaneous video imaging on a monitor either near or at the patient or at a remote site via telemedicine techniques. The viewing system is comprised of objective lenses, relays, a beamsplitter, and eyepiece and provides an erect, un-reversed image of the patient's retina to the trained personnel.
More Information

No
The summary describes a video ophthalmoscope with a split viewing path for direct observation and video imaging. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any algorithms that would suggest the use of such technologies for analysis or interpretation. The device appears to be a tool for visualization, not automated analysis.

No
The device is described as a viewing/examining tool (diagnostic) and does not mention any therapeutic function or intent to treat.

Yes

Explanation: The device is used to "examine the cornea, aqueous, lens, vitreous, and retina of the eye," which directly relates to assessing a patient’s health condition and making decisions about diagnosis or treatment. The act of "examining" these parts of the eye suggests an evaluative function, which is the core purpose of a diagnostic device.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "hand held indirect and direct monocular device" with physical components like "objective lenses, relays, a beamsplitter, and eyepiece," indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Function: The Vidco Ophthalmoscope is used to directly examine the internal structures of the eye within the patient's body. It's a diagnostic tool, but it's used for in vivo examination, not in vitro testing of specimens.

The description clearly states it's a device for viewing and examining parts of the eye directly. This falls under the category of an ophthalmic diagnostic device, not an IVD.

Technological Characteristics & Comparison to Predicate Device:

The Precision Optics Corporation video ophthalmoscope is very similar in design and performance to the Welch Allyn video ophthalmoscope (510(k) #K951210). The design and construction of the beamsplitter portion as well as most technical parameters are identical. Minor differences exist in the illumination controls, number of apertures, number of filters, specific diopter settings and shape of handle, but these differences are not critical to performance Page 07-02
