No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical function and biocompatibility of a physical injector, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

No.
This device is an injector used to implant intraocular lenses, which are therapeutic devices. However, the injector itself does not provide any therapeutic effect.

No

Explanation: The device is an injector used to insert intraocular lenses (IOLs) during cataract surgery. Its function is mechanical insertion, not diagnosis.

No

The device is a physical, single-use disposable injector made of plastic components, designed to mechanically fold and insert an IOL. It is not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "compress and insert into the capsular bag only those IOL models that allow use of this injector in their approved labeling." This describes a surgical tool used to implant a medical device (an intraocular lens or IOL) into the eye.
  • Device Description: The description details a mechanical device made of plastic components designed to fold and insert an IOL during surgery.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. IVDs are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) during a surgical procedure.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the mechanical function of the injector, its biocompatibility, and its impact on the implanted IOL. These are typical performance metrics for surgical instruments and implant delivery systems, not IVDs.

Therefore, the device described is a surgical instrument for implanting intraocular lenses, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description

The disposable single-use soft tipped injector (model number R-INJ-04) is intended to be used to compress and insert into the capsular bag only those IOL models that allow use of this injector in their approved labeling. It is designed to mechanically fold the lens and insert it into the eye during normal, small-incision cataract surgery.

INJECTOR LOADING is described as follows: aseptically transfer the injector to the sterile field by tipping it from the tray. Fully retract the plunger ensuring that the blue tip does not protrude into the loading bay. Open the loading bay flap fully to 90° and sparingly apply a commercially available viscoelastic inside the nozzle and to both grooves of the loading bay. Balanced salt solution alone should not be used as a lubricant. Carefully peel back the foil lid of the lens blister. Gently lift out the lens using parallel tipped, non-serrated forceps e.g. Kelman-McPherson. Position the lens in the loading bay in a "reverse - S" configuration. Ensure that the nearest edge of the optic is securely under the edge (lip) of the barrel. Hold open the flap and press with closed forceps to ensure the furthest edge of the optic is securely under the edge (lip) of the flap. Ensure the haptics are completely within the loading bay. While keeping the lens in position with open forceps, gently close the flaps of the injector ensuring that no part of the optic or haptics is trapped, before locking the flaps firmly together. Visually observe that the lens is symmetrically folded within the loading bay. Advance the plunger in a slow controlled manner. Anticipate an initial slight resistance could indicate a trapped lens. Observe that the lens stays symmetrically folded within the nozzle. When the lens exits the nozzle, stop depressing the plunger. The plunger is only to be depressed once.

The soft tipped injector (model number R-INJ-04) is a plastic, single-use disposable device.

The injector components barrel, flap, nozzle and bush are made of polypropylene. The plunger is a polypropylene with a soft tip made from a Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE). The injector is transparent and the plunger has a blue tip.

Summary of Performance Studies

Substantial equivalence is based on the assessment of non-clinical performance data including:

  • Biocompatibility testing on the injector. This testing was undertaken on the nozzle and plunger tip as these components incorporate the materials in contact with the tissues. Testing shows the materials to be biocompatible/toxicologically safe for the intended clinical application.
  • Visual, optical and mechanical testing on injected IOL. Visual testing included: No optic lens tears for properly loaded lenses, No haptic damage, Absence of 'Fold lines' and/or deposits/debris on the lens surface, Evaluation of haptic fixation recovery time, to 11 mm diameter dimension. Optical testing included: Modulation Transfer Function, Dioptric power, Spectral transmittance. Mechanical testing included: Dimensions, Lens sagittal dimension, Lens overall diameter, Haptic compression force, Dynamic fatigue durability, Limb/loop pull strength, Optic decentration, Optic tilt, Axial displacement. Testing was carried out as per FDA guidelines in that the lens is folded for a minimum of 3 minutes. The IOL was allowed to return to its original and designed configuration. Compliance with applicable mechanical and optical requirements was demonstrated at 24+/-2 hours post folding/injection.
  • Visual and mechanical testing on injector. Visual/Production testing included: Surface finish & dimensional check. Mechanical testing included: Nozzle tip detachment from barrel/main body of injector, Tensile testing on bond of the TPE tip to the shaft of the plunger.
  • Packaging performance testing. Tests performed included: Sterility test, Dye penetration, Burst Test.

Key results: The performance data indicates that the Rayner Single Use Disposable Soft Tipped Injector R-INJ-04 delivers those IOL models, that allow use of this injector in their approved labeling, without significantly impacting the optical performance, the dimensions or the cosmetic appearance of the lens.

Non-clinical performance data - discussion and conclusions

Substantial equivalence is based on the assessment of non-clinical performance data

More specifically this contains the following information:

  • Biocompatibility testing on the injector .
  • Visual, optical and mechanical testing on injected IOL. .
  • Visual and mechanical testing on injector. .
  • Packaging performance testing .

The performance data indicates that the Rayner Single Use Disposable Soft Tipped Injector R-INJ-04 delivers those IOL models, that allow use of this injector in their approved labeling, without significantly impacting the optical performance, the dimensions or the cosmetic appearance of the lens.

The following series of tests were conducted with the injection media Balanced Salt Solution (BSS) and a viscoelastic currently approved and used on the US market.

a) Biocompatibility testing on the injector

Biocompatibility testing on the injector was undertaken on the nozzle and plunger tip as these components incorporate the materials in contact with the tissues of the injector components barrel, flap and bush are made from the same polypropylene material as the nozzle. The nozzle was tested in the previous version of the single use disposable injector (model R-INJ-02 / K052651). The plunger is a polypropylene with a soft tip made from a Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE). The injector is transparent and the plunger has a blue tip. Using the scheme as outlined in ISO 10993-1 and the US Blue Book Memorandum G95-1 the following tests have been undertaken Cytotoxicity (Quantitative Growth Inhibition Test (ISO 10993-5), Maximization Test according to Magnusson and Kligman (ISO 10993-10) Intracutaneous Reactivity (ISO 10993-10) and Acute Systemic Toxicity (ISO 10993-11). Testing on the final packaged and terminally sterilized Single Use Disposable Soft Tipped Lens Injector (R-INJ-04) shows the materials to be biocompatible/toxicologically safe for the intended clinical application (limited exposure duration with the device in contact with a breached/comprised surface).

b) Visual, optical and mechanical testing on injected IOL

VISUAL TESTING

Observation at magnification under optimal lighting conditions for the following:

  • No optic lens tears for properly loaded lenses. .
  • . No haptic damage.
  • Absence of 'Fold lines' and/or deposits/debris on the lens surface. .
  • Evaluation of haptic fixation recovery time, to 11 mm diameter dimension. .
  • OPTICAL TESTING
  • Modulation Transfer Function .
  • . Dioptric power
  • Spectral transmittance .

MECHANICAL TESTING

  • Dimensions ●
  • Lens sagittal dimension .
  • Lens overall diameter .
  • Haptic compression force .
  • Dynamic fatigue durability .

Page 4 of 5

  • Limb/loop pull strength ●
  • Optic decentration .
  • . Optic tilt
  • . Axial displacement

The aforementioned mechanical testing is an assessment of the haptic function. Dioptric power does not affect the property tested. Therefore testing as per FDA IOL Guidance document Oct 10th 1997, was performed on 10 lenses each of both the highest and lowest powers.

Testing was carried out as per FDA guidelines in that the lens is folded for a minimum of 3 minutes. The IOL was allowed to return to its original and designed configuration. Compliance with applicable mechanical and optical requirements was demonstrated at 24+/-2 hours post folding/injection. (Reference ISO 11979-3, section 4.1 & CDRH IOL Guidance Document Oct 10th 1997).

c) Visual and mechanical testing on the single use disposable injector

VISUAL/PRODUCTION

  • Surface finish & dimensional check .

MECHANICAL

  • Nozzle tip detachment from barrel/main body of injector .
  • . Tensile testing on bond of the TPE tip to the shaft of the plunger

d) Packaging performance testing

The following tests were performed:

  • Sterility test .
  • Dye penetration .
  • . Burst Test
