Intended Use

Punctal Occluders (plugs) are indicated for the treatment of "dry eye" syndrome.

Device Description

This device, made of medical grade silicone, titanium dioxide as a colorant and utilizing a proprietary surface treatment made under current good manufacturing practices, is a small, generally "plug" shaped design. Punctal Occluders are intended for the treatment of "dry eve" conditions through partial occlusion of individual punctual openings.

AI/ML Overview

This 510(k) summary (K090938) describes a Micro Flow Punctal Occluder, a medical device intended for the treatment of "dry eye" conditions. The submission makes a case for substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Odyssey Punctal Occluder, K970631) rather than directly presenting a study to prove new acceptance criteria.

Therefore, the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and a study to prove the device meets them is not explicitly available in the provided text. The document focuses on demonstrating that the new device is substantially equivalent to a previously cleared device.

Here's an explanation based on the provided text:

  • Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance: This information is not explicitly stated in the form of measurable acceptance criteria or performance metrics derived from a study. The submission asserts substantial equivalence based on material, design, and intended use.
  • Study Details: There is no description of a study conducted to demonstrate the device's performance against specific acceptance criteria.

Key points from the 510(k) summary regarding the device and its comparison to the predicate:

  • Device Description: The Micro Flow Punctal Occluder is made of medical grade silicone with titanium dioxide as a colorant and a proprietary surface treatment. It's a small, "plug" shaped design.
  • Intended Use: Treatment of "dry eye" conditions through partial occlusion of individual punctal openings.
  • Predicate Device: Odyssey Punctal Occluder (K970631).
  • Differences from Predicate (Micro-Flow vs. Original Odyssey Plug):
    • Original: Larger angle nose, no through hole, shorter length.
    • Micro-Flow (New):
      • Has a through hole for partial occlusion.
      • A 0.002 ridge on the nose to support the through hole.
      • Smaller angle on the nose (tip).
  • Safety and Reversibility: The document highlights that the submitted method is functionally safe and fully reversible, unlike some alternative methods that are permanent or difficult to reverse, or risk damaging intact tissue.

In summary, the provided document does not contain the details of a study with acceptance criteria, sample sizes, expert qualifications, or adjudication methods as requested. It is a 510(k) submission relying on substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

510K Summary

Submitted: 03/12/2009 By: Terry Green Registration Number: 1060840 Trade Name: Punctal Occluder Common Name: Plug, Punctum Product Name: Micro Flow Classification Name: LZU Classification Panel: Ophthalmic Device Class: Unclassified Performance Standards: None Established

Summary:

This device, made of medical grade silicone, titanium dioxide as a colorant and utilizing a proprietary surface treatment made under current good manufacturing practices, is a small, generally "plug" shaped design. Punctal Occluders are intended for the treatment of "dry eve" conditions through partial occlusion of individual punctual openings. By material, design and intended use, Micro Flow is substantially equivalent to the previous Odyssey Punctal Occluder (K970631).

Differences between the two devices may be described as follows:

The original Odyssey plug under 510 K970631 has a larger angle nose, no through hole and shorter in length.

The new design "Micro-Flow" is similar to the original plug with the exceptions of the following:

  • A through hole which allows for partial occlusion of individual punctual openings. .
  • A .002 ridge on nose to help support the designed through hole. .
  • Angle on nose (tip) is smaller. ●

Alternative methods of punctual occlusion are either permanent or difficult to reverse. In contrast, the submitted method is both functionally safe and fully reversible. Unlike some other methods, this device does not require the breach of intact tissue surfaces or the risk of damaging said surface should reversal become desirable.

Dear Mr. Green:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
