AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a Special 510(k) submission for a VISTAKON® (etafilcon A) Soft (hydrophilic) Contact Lens. This submission is for modifications to an existing device, and therefore, the primary method of demonstrating acceptance criteria is through comparison to a predicate device and non-clinical testing, rather than a de novo clinical study with specific performance metrics for the modified device.

Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

For a 510(k) submission concerning modifications to an existing device, "acceptance criteria" are generally focused on demonstrating that the modified device performs equivalently to the predicate device for specified properties, and meets established safety and performance standards through non-clinical testing.

Toxicology Testing (Cytotoxicity, Ocular Irritation, Systemic Toxicity, Leachables)Compliance with FDA Premarket Notification (510(k)) Guidance Document for Daily Wear Contact lenses, May 12, 1984 standards."Non-toxic and biocompatible with the ocular environment"
Physical/Chemical TestingWithin established finished product specifications."Within established finished product specifications"
Stability TestingRemains stable."Remain stable"
Solution Compatibility TestingCompatibility with disinfection systems.(Implied by nature of test)

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

The document explicitly states: "The technological characteristics, formulation, manufacturing, and sterilization processes are the same as the predicate device, therefore no clinical data is required." This indicates that there was no separate "test set" of patient data for a new clinical study. The data provenance would be derived from the non-clinical tests and the established equivalence to the predicate device.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

Not applicable. As no clinical data was required or provided, there was no "test set" requiring ground truth established by experts in the context of this 510(k) submission.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

Not applicable. No clinical data or test set requiring adjudication was conducted for this 510(k) submission.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

Not applicable. This device is a contact lens, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool. Therefore, no MRMC study or AI-related comparative effectiveness was conducted.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

Not applicable. This device is a contact lens, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

For the non-clinical tests mentioned (Toxicology, Physical/Chemical, Stability, Solution Compatibility), the "ground truth" would be established by validated laboratory testing methods and accepted industry standards, as referenced by the FDA Premarket Notification (510(k)) Guidance Document for Daily Wear Contact lenses, May 12, 1984. For the comparative properties shown in the table, the ground truth is the predicate device's label claims.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This device is a modified contact lens, not an AI model, so there is no training set in the context of machine learning.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable. As there is no training set.

§ 886.5925 Soft (hydrophilic) contact lens.

(a)
Identification. A soft (hydrophilic) contact lens is a device intended to be worn directly against the cornea and adjacent limbal and scleral areas of the eye to correct vision conditions or act as a therapeutic bandage. The device is made of various polymer materials the main polymer molecules of which absorb or attract a certain volume (percentage) of water.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II if the device is intended for daily wear only.(2) Class III if the device is intended for extended wear.
(c)
Date PMA or notice of completion of a PDP is required. As of May 28, 1976, an approval under section 515 of the act is required before a device described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section may be commercially distributed. See § 886.3.
