The summary describes a physical contact lens with specific material properties and design configurations. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
Yes.
The device is used for the correction of refractive errors and irregular corneas, which are conditions that impair vision. The term "therapeutic" refers to the treatment or healing of disease, and while refractive error is not a disease, its correction is a form of treatment. Therefore, the device serves a therapeutic purpose by improving vision.
No
Explanation: The device, SynergEyes® SiH with Hydra-PEG Hybrid Daily Wear Contact Lenses, is described as a corrective lens for refractive errors, including hyperopia, myopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. Its function is to focus light rays onto the retina, acting as a "refractive medium." It is not described as diagnosing any condition; rather, it corrects existing conditions.
No
The device description clearly indicates it is a physical contact lens made from specific materials (petrafocon A and hem-larafilcon A) and has physical properties like diameter, thickness, and base curve. It is a tangible medical device, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a contact lens used for the correction of refractive errors in the eye. This is a therapeutic and corrective function, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details the physical properties and materials of a contact lens designed to be worn on the eye to focus light. It does not describe a device used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific substances or markers, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
The device is a medical device, specifically a contact lens, but it falls under the category of devices used for correction and treatment, not in vitro diagnostics.

Device Description
The SynergEyes® SiH with Hydra-PEG Hybrid Daily Wear Contact Lens is a combination of high Dk rigid gas permeable contact lens-at the central optical portion of the lens corresponding to the cornea-and soft hydrophilic silicone-hydrogel skirt-straddling the limbus of the eye peripherally. The lenses are manufactured by lathe cutting process for custom Rx, and fabricated from petrafocon A (rigid, central portion) and hem-larafilcon A (soft, peripheral portion). The soft skirt is comprised of silicone hydrogel copolymer (hem-larafilcon A). The lens consists of 28% water and 72% (petrafocon A and hem-larafilcon A). The (petratocon A and hem-larafilcon A) names have been adopted by the United States Adopted Names Council (USAN). When placed on the human cornea, the SynergEyes® SiH with Hydra-PEG Hybrid Daily Wear Contact Lens acts as a refractive medium to focus light rays onto the retina.
The SynergEyes® SiH with Hydra-PEG Hybrid Daily Wear Contact Lens incorporates a violet visibility tint in the rigid gas permeable center, and a UV absorber. The device is available in the spherical, aspheric, multifocal (progressive), post-surgical, & irregular cornea design configurations with the following properties:
• Chord Diameter: 13.0 mm to 25.00 mm
• Center Thickness: 0.050 mm to 0.500 mm
• Base Curve: 5.50 mm to 9.50 mm
• Power Range (sphere): -25.00D to +25.00D
• Add Power: +1.00D to +4.00D
The Physical properties of the lens are:
Refractive Index (wet): RGP Center 1.442, Soft Skirt 1.435
Luminous Transmittance (tinted) (380nm to 780): 87% for RGP Center, 97% for Soft Skirt
Surface Character: hydrophobic for RGP Center, hydrophilic for Soft Skirt
Water Content: 28 ± 2% for RGP Center
Specific Gravity: 1.15 for RGP Center
Oxygen Permeability (revised Fatt method): 130 for RGP Center, 84 for Soft Skirt
The SynergEyes® SiH with Hydra-PEG Hybrid Daily Wear Contact Lens is treated to incorporate Hydra-PEG Technology (HPT)-which is a thin polyethylene glycol (PEG)-based polymer that is covalently (permanently) bonded to the surface of the contact lens and is designed to enhance the surface properties of the contact lens while retaining the mechanical properties of the underlying material. When treated with HPT, the underlying material (petrafocon A hem-larafilcon A) is encapsulated in a thin layer of polymer that results in measurable improvement of wettability (dynamic contact receding angle) compared to untreated lenses. The resulting layer is hydrophilic and approximately 30nm in thickness.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Non-clinical Testing: A series of in vitro and in vivo preclinical toxicology and biocompatibility tests were performed to assess the safety and effectiveness of the SynergEyes® SiH with Hydra-PEG Hybrid Daily Wear Contact Lens packaged in glass vials. All non-clinical toxicology tests were conducted in accordance with the GLP regulation. All other testing was conducted according to valid scientific protocols. Test results demonstrate that:
- Lenses supplied in glass vials are stable for the indicated shelf-life.
- The finished lenses with Hydra-PEG are not toxic and not irritating.
- Lens physical and material properties are consistent with currently marketed lenses.
Clinical Testing: The clinical safety and effectiveness has been previously established for hybrid contact lenses manufactured from (petrafocon A hem-larafilcon A) and contact lenses treated with Hydra-PEG.
Key results:
Wettability (captive bubble contact angle) of SynergEyes® SiH with Hydra-PEG (New Device) showed an average of 21.75° (Stdev 2.2), compared to SynergEyes® SiH (Uncoated) (Predicate Device) which had an average of 33.50° (Stdev 9.5). Hydra-PEG coated lenses demonstrate a 35% improvement in wettability vs. uncoated lenses (n = 20). Statistically significant difference for mean contact angle with respect to lenses had a lower average contact angle than the un-coated lenses (ANOVA, p=0.000).
Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)
Wettability (captive bubble contact angle): 21.75° average for treated lenses, 33.50° average for untreated lenses.
35% improvement in wettability for coated lenses vs. uncoated lenses.

Specifically, HPT treated contact lenses demonstrate a measureable improvement in the contact angle in comparison with the untreated lenses. The application of HPT to the surface of SynergEyes® SiH contact lenses does not change the design or indications for use in comparison with the untreated lenses, the predicate device (K083921 and K113586).
