AI/ML Overview

This is a 510(k) premarket notification for cosmetic contact lenses, not an AI/ML device. Therefore, the requested information about acceptance criteria and study design for an AI/ML device is not applicable here.

The document discusses the substantial equivalence of the Aquamax (Etafilcon A) contact lenses to existing predicate devices (ACUVUE and Discon Plus contact lenses) based on non-clinical performance tests and technological characteristics.

The document does not contain information about:

  • Acceptance criteria for an AI/ML device.
  • A "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in the context of AI/ML performance metrics.
  • Sample sizes for test sets and data provenance for AI/ML.
  • Number of experts, their qualifications, or adjudication methods for ground truth in an AI/ML context.
  • Multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness studies.
  • Standalone algorithm performance.
  • Training set information for an AI/ML model.

Instead, it focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence through:

  • Technological characteristics comparison: This involves comparing physical and chemical properties of the lenses (e.g., water content, refractive index, oxygen permeability, transmittance) to predicate devices.
  • Biocompatibility tests: Standard tests for cytotoxicity, sensitization, and ocular irritation with negative responses.
  • Microbiology tests: Validation of steam sterilization process and shelf-life stability to ensure sterility.
  • Bacteriostatic validation: Verification of sterilizer effectiveness and lens sterility over time.
  • Leachability studies: Confirmation of no leachable monomers or additive residues from the finished lenses.

The document states, "Clinical studies for Aquamx Bi-Weekly Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses and Aquamax (Etafilcon A) Daily Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses are not required for the premarket notification as the USAN name and process are the same as the above mentioned predicate devices." This further confirms that no clinical studies (and by extension, no AI/ML specific performance studies) were conducted or reported for this submission.

Summary of Clinical Study

Etafilcon A lenses have been used widely. Its safety and effectiveness have been well documented. Their safety and effectiveness can be further exemplified by two lenses cleared by FDA

    Clinical studies for Aquamx Bi-Weekly Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses and Aquamax (Etafilcon A) Daily Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses are not required for the premarket notification as the USAN name and process are the same as the above mentioned predicate devices.

Non-clinical Study

All tests were conducted in accordance with the May 1994 FDA guideline title Premarket Notification 510(K) Guidance Document for Class IV Contact Lenses.

The non-clinical performance tests had been performed to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of Aquamax (Etafilcon A) Bi-Weekly Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses and Aquamax (Etafilcon A) Daily Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses and establish substantial equivalence to predicate lenses ACUVUE Contact Lens clear and visibility tint with UV blocker (K962804); and Discon Plus Contact Lens visibility tint with UV Blocker. The evidence of substantial equivalence to the predicate lenses is described below.

a) Technological characteristics studies

The technological characteristics of Aquamax (Etafilcon A) Bi-Weekly Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses and Aquamax (Etafilcon A) Daily Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses are illustrated in the following Table.

The oxygen permeability data for predicate lenses were copied from 510(K) summary of respective lens. Actual measurement of oxygen permeability for ACUVUE gave substantially equivalent value within error of measurement.

b) Biocompatibility

The standard cytotoxicity, maximization sensitization and ocular irritation tests were carried out for both Aquamax (Etafilcon A) Bi-Weekly Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses and Aquamax (Etafilcon A) Daily Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses and negative responses were recorded for all tests. The validity of blister package for lenses was demonstrated by passing the standard extraction tests.

c) Microbiology

Steam sterilization process had been validated to deliver a minimum SAL of 106, thereby complying with the requirement of FDA group IV. There is shelf-life stability supporting that these lenses remain sterile through the expiration date claimed for the product

{4}------------------------------------------------

d) Bacteriostatic Validation

The steam sterilizer was tested for effectiveness by measuring and demonstrating the uniformity of temperature at different location inside the sterilizer over test period. Tested microorganisms were killed under tested conditions as compared to control.

Lenses remained sterilized and there was no microbial growth for a period of S years tested under accelerated condition. Seal of lens packages remained tight for a period of 5 years as demonstrated by the constant peeling strength tested under accelerated condition.

e) Leachability

Studies were conducted to determine the leachable materials from the finished lenses. The results show that, at the levels of the detection reported, there are no leachable monomers and additive residues.

Substantial Equivalence Statement

In conclusion, it is PEGAVISION's conviction that data submitted in this 510(K) to validate the claim of substantial equivalency, substantiates our ability to manufacture soft contact lenses, the Aquamax (Etafilcon A) Bi-Weekly Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses and Aquamax (Etafilcon A) Daily Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses, with the same established safety profile and effectiveness as the predicate devices - ACUVUE (Etafilcon A) Contact Lens clear and visibility tint with UV blocker cleared via K962804; and Discon Plus Contact Lens visibility tint with UV Blocker cleared via K083288.
