The device description and performance studies focus on the chemical and biological properties of a corneal storage medium, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No
The device is a storage medium for human corneas (a medical device), not a therapeutic device that directly treats a disease or condition in a living patient. It is used to preserve organs for later transplantation.
No
Explanation: This device is a corneal storage medium. Its purpose is to preserve corneal tissue, not to diagnose a condition or disease.
No
The device is a sterile hypothermic corneal storage medium, which is a physical substance used for preserving corneas. It is not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: Cornea Cold® is a storage medium used to preserve a human cornea before it is transplanted into a patient. Its purpose is to maintain the viability and integrity of the tissue, not to perform a diagnostic test on a specimen.
- Intended Use: The intended use is "Hypothermic (2-8°C) human corneal storage for 14 days." This clearly describes a preservation function, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description reinforces that it's a storage medium for corneas after surgery and before transplantation.
- Lack of Diagnostic Tests: The performance studies listed focus on the physical, chemical, microbiological, and biocompatibility properties of the storage medium itself, and its ability to preserve the cornea. There are no mentions of tests performed on the cornea or any other human specimen to diagnose a condition or provide diagnostic information.
Therefore, Cornea Cold® falls under the category of a medical device used for tissue preservation, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
Cornea Cold® is a sterile hypothermic corneal storage medium intended for human corneal storage at 2-8°C, for up to 14 days. Corneas are directly placed in Cornea Cold storage medium after surgery, and stored in eye banks between +2°C for a maximum of 2 weeks. The shortest storage time is determined by the time needed to obtain serology results of the donor. It is for single use, to be used by physicians or highly skilled personnel such as bank operators. The device gets into direct contact with the patient by accumulation in the cornea graft.
Under aseptic conditions, the seal of the vial is broken and the cap loosened. The cap is lifted and place adjacent to sterile field with inner liner face up. The cornea is then transferred into the vial and submerged with liquid. The cap is tightened.
Scientific basis for the device: Cold storage of cornea is traditionally performed by keeping corneas in a cold storage medium containing deswelling agent(s) between +2°C and +8°C. Cornea Cold hypothermic corneal storage media contains Dextran, an osmotic agent. The device contains the necessary components for preservation of cornea for grafting, with antibiotics to prevent microbiological contaminations, and other components (essential and non essential amino acids, energetic components, vitamins, pH indicator, inorganic salts) to maintain the cornea in healthy state for keratoplasty. Storage of cornea in these conditions can last up to 14 days.
Physical and performance characteristics:
Device design and Material used: Cornea Cold medium (28 mL/vial) is contained in a 30 ml type I glass vial and the cap has a seal to ensure the vial has not been opened. The device comes as single unit (Ref: CMXCOLD4FB). Twelve individual Cornea Cold units are packaged in a box (Ref: CMXCOLD4FB-UN), appropriately labeled with lot number and expiration date. Cornea Cold is ready to use and instructions for Use are included in the box.
Physical properties: Cornea Cold can be stored at 2-8°C until ready for use for up to 9 months. No defrosting of the medium is needed. pH is physiological and osmolarity are controlled. The red cherry color of the medium can be visually monitored in case of abnormal change in pH as indicated in Instruction for use package insert.
