The Aquamax (Etafilcon A) Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses for Frequent Replacement, Aquamax (Etafilcon A) Daily Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses, and Natural/ue (Etafilcon A) Daily Disposable Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses are clear or visibility-tinted, containing a UV blocker and are available in a spherical, aspherical multifocal, and multifocal toric designs. They are manufactured by cast molding method. The device is an ionic hydrogel lens derived from Etafilcon A which is a co-polymer of 2-Hydroxyethylmethacrylate (2-HEMA) and Methacrylic Acid (MAA), cross-linked with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) and 1,1,1-trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TMPTMA) via photo-polymerization. The copolymer consists of 42% Etafilcon A and 58% water by weight when immersed in normal buffered saline solution. The lenses are tinted blue using C.I. Reactive Blue 19 to make them more visible for handling. The lenses contain a UV blocker, a benzotriazole UV absorbing monomer to block UV radiation. The average transmittance characteristics of the lenses are less than 5% in the UVB range of 280-315nm and less than 30% in the UVA range of 316-380nm. Lenses are supplied sterile in sealed blister package containing sterile isotonic borate buffered saline solution.

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study information provided:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The acceptance criteria are implicitly defined by demonstrating substantial equivalence to the predicate devices based on material properties, biocompatibility, microbiology, bacteriostatic validation, and leachability. There are no explicit quantitative acceptance criteria stated beyond "complying with the requirement of FDA Group 4" for sterilization. Differences in oxygen permeability and percent transmittance are evaluated against the predicate devices.

§ 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.
