No
The summary describes a contact lens and its material properties. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would typically incorporate AI/ML.
Yes
The device is a contact lens indicated for the correction of visual acuity, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
The device description clearly states its purpose is for "correction of visual acuity," indicating it's a corrective device, not one used for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical contact lens made from specific materials, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The Benz-G 4X contact lens is a device that is placed on the eye to correct vision. It does not perform any tests on bodily samples.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the correction of visual acuity, not for diagnosis or detection of disease through analysis of bodily fluids or tissues.
Therefore, this contact lens falls under the category of a medical device, but not specifically an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Benz-G 4X 54% (Hioxifilcon D) Multifocal Lathed soft contact lens for daily wear is indicated for the correction of visual acuity in aphakic or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes that are myopic, hyperopic, possess astigmatism of 10.0 diopters or less and are presbyopic. The spherical lens may be worn by persons who exhibit astigmatism of 0.75 Diopter or less that does not interfere with visual acuity. The toric lens may be worn by persons who exhibit astigmatism of up to 10 Diopters.
Eye care practitioners may prescribe the lens for frequent/planned replacement wear, with cleaning disinfection and scheduled replacement. When prescribed for frequent/planned replacement wear, the lens may be disinfected using a chemical disinfection system.

Device Description
The Benz-G 4X (Hioxifilcon D) Multifocal Lathed soft contact lenses are hemispherical shells and are available as multifocal lens designs. The Benz-G 4X (Hioxifilcon D) Multifocal Lathed soft contact lens is fabricated from Hioxifilcon D, which is a non-ionic copolymer of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (2-HEMA) and 2,3-, Dihydroxypropyl Methacrylate (Glycerol Methacrylate, GMA) and cross-linkned with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA). It consists of 46% Hioxifilcon Datod 54% water by weight when immersed in normal buffered saline solution buffered. The lens is available with a blue visibility handling tint, phthalocyanato (2) - (copper).
In the hydrated state, the lens conforms to the curvature of the eye covering the cornea and extending slightly beyond the limbus forming a colorless, rransparent optical surface. The hydrophilic properties of the lens require that it be maintained in a fully hydrated state in a solution compatible with the eye.

Clinical Data:
It was determined that clinical studies were not necessary to establish the safety and effectiveness of the Benz-G 4X (Hioxifilcon D) Multifocal Lathed lenses.
This Benz-G 4X (Hioxifilcon D) material is identical to the previously cleared Benz-G 4X (Hioxifilcon D) under K062854.
The Benz-G 4X (Hioxifilcon D) Multifocal Lathed lenses have the identical manufacturing process (lathe-cut versus lathed-cut) as the marketed lens Benz-G 4X (Hioxifilcon D) Lathed.
Conclusion:
The information provided in this premarket submission establishes that the Benz-G 4X (Hioxifilcon D) Multifocal Lathed lenses is substantially equivalent in terms of intended use, materials, toxicological and physiochemical properties to the predicate device, Benz-G 4X (Hioxifileon D) Lathed Lens. This change is to correct the visual acuity in aphakic and nonaphakic persons with non-diseased eyes that are myopic, hyperopic, possess astigmatism of 10.0 diopters or less and are presbyopic. This visual acuity correction is achieved with the addition of another optical zone.

In addition, the Benz-G 4X (Hioxifilcon D) Multifocal Lathed lenses are manufactured at Benz Research & Development according to the identical manufactured are manufactured a following previously cleared hydrophilic contact lenses:
Benz-G 4X (Hioxifilcon D) K062854
This Benz-G 4X (Hioxifilcon D) material is identical to the previously cleared Benz-G 4X (Hioxifilcon D) under K062854.
Benz-G 4X (Hioxifilcon D) Multifocal lathed lens therefore meets the requirements of substantial equivalence and is as safe and effective as the predicate device.

Dear Mr. Espinosa:
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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
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.
