No
The summary describes a laser platform with software updates and a new patient bed option. While it mentions a "lens apex detection feature," there is no indication or description of AI/ML being used for this or any other function. The performance studies focus on traditional engineering and software validation, not AI/ML model training or testing.
Yes
The device is used to perform surgical procedures (corneal flap creation, anterior capsulotomy, cuts/incisions in the cornea, lens fragmentation) aimed at treating ophthalmic conditions like cataracts and those requiring LASIK surgery, thereby directly addressing medical conditions.
No
The device is described as a "precision ophthalmic surgical laser" used for creating corneal flaps, performing anterior capsulotomy, making corneal cuts/incisions, and laser-assisted lens fragmentation during surgery. These are all therapeutic or interventional procedures, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device is a laser platform that includes significant hardware components (femtosecond laser, scanning optic system, patient interface, patient bed) in addition to software. The software is an iteration of the existing platform's software.
Based on the provided information, the VICTUS Femtosecond Laser Platform is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical laser platform used for performing procedures on the patient's eye (cornea and lens). This involves physical intervention and modification of tissue.
- Device Description: The description details a surgical laser that produces Laser-Induced Optical Breakdown (LIOB) of tissue. It's a tool for performing surgical cuts and fragmentation.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The VICTUS does not perform any analysis of biological samples.
The VICTUS Femtosecond Laser Platform is a surgical device used for ophthalmic procedures.

Device Description
The VICTUS Femtosecond Laser Platform (VICTUS) is a precision ophthalmic surgical laser and is cleared for use in the creation of a corneal flap in patients undergoing LASIK surgery or other treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea and for patients undergoing anterior capsulotomy during cataract surgery. The VICTUS has additionally been cleared for patients undergoing cataract surgery or other ophthalmic treatment requiring penetrating arcuate cuts / incisions in the cornea, primary/secondary corneal incisions, and laser-assisted lens fragmentation.
This submission includes the next software iteration of version 3.3 and introduces a new S60 patient bed option for the VICTUS Platform. The v3.3 software introduces an additional pattern (grid pattern) which is a variation of currently cleared patterns and is being added to the already cleared lens fragmentation capability. In addition, the software introduces a lens apex detection feature.
The previously cleared patient contacting lens and previously cleared suction clip assembly are combined in one convenient package for the user as the VERAFIT patient interface kit. With the exception of the introduction of a new S60 patient bed option, the VICTUS Platform hardware remains unchanged from that described and cleared via K151161.
The mode of operation for the VICTUS Platform is using Yb:KYW Femtosecond laser to produce Laser-Induced Optical Breakdown (LIOB) of the corneal tissue. For all indications for use, laser pulses are delivered through a sterile disposable Patient Interface, consisting of a contact lens and suction clip to provide suction. The contact lens and suction clip assembly creates a reference surface for depth control and fix the eye relative to the delivery of the laser beam. Surgical effects are produced by scanning thousands of individual pulses, producing continuous incisions. The location of the tissue photodisruption is controlled by a fixed laser beam focused through a scanning optic system to the desired location.

IV. Device Description
The VICTUS Femtosecond Laser Platform (VICTUS) is a precision ophthalmic surgical laser and is cleared for use in the creation of a corneal flap in patients undergoing LASIK surgery or other treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea and for patients undergoing anterior capsulotomy during cataract surgery. The VICTUS has additionally been cleared for patients undergoing cataract surgery or other ophthalmic treatment requiring penetrating arcuate cuts / incisions in the cornea, primary/secondary corneal incisions, and laser-assisted lens fragmentation.
This submission includes the next software iteration of version 3.3 and introduces a new S60 patient bed option for the VICTUS Platform. The v3.3 software introduces an additional pattern (grid pattern) which is a variation of currently cleared patterns and is being added to the already cleared lens fragmentation capability. In addition, the software introduces a lens apex detection feature.
The previously cleared patient contacting lens and previously cleared suction clip assembly are combined in one convenient package for the user as the VERAFIT patient interface kit. With the exception of the introduction of a new S60 patient bed option, the VICTUS Platform hardware remains unchanged from that described and cleared via K151161.
The mode of operation for the VICTUS Platform is using Yb:KYW Femtosecond laser to produce Laser-Induced Optical Breakdown (LIOB) of the corneal tissue. For all indications for use, laser pulses are delivered through a sterile disposable Patient Interface, consisting of a contact lens and suction clip to provide suction. The contact lens and suction clip assembly creates a reference surface for depth control and fix the eye relative to the delivery of the laser beam. Surgical effects are produced by scanning thousands of individual pulses, producing continuous incisions. The location of the tissue photodisruption is controlled by a fixed laser beam focused through a scanning optic system to the desired location.
The indications for use remains the same as previously cleared for the VICTUS Femtosecond Laser Platform under K151161.

V. Indications for Use
The VICTUS Femtosecond Laser Platform is indicated for use for:
- the creation of a corneal flap in patients undergoing LASIK surgery or other treatment ● requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea.
- for anterior capsulotomy during cataract surgery. ●
- the creation of cuts / incisions in the cornea in patients undergoing cataract surgery or . other ophthalmic treatment requiring cuts / incisions in the cornea.
6
- laser-assisted lens fragmentation of nuclear cataracts during cataract surgery, not for ● fragmentation of posterior subcapsular (PSC) and cortical cataracts
The indications for use remain unchanged from those previously cleared via K151161.
VI. Comparison of Technological Characteristics with the Predicate
The mode of operation for the VICTUS Platform is using Yb:KYW Femtosecond laser to produce Laser-Induced Optical Breakdown (LIOB) of the corneal tissue and is the same as that previously cleared for the predicate VICTUS under K151161. Both systems deliver femtosecond pulses to produce a pattern of photodisruption to create cuts / separation in ophthalmic tissue. The subject and predicate device contain the same main unit components as described earlier in this document.
This submission includes updated software version 3.3 software will only be installed on those VICTUS Platform systems that have the cleared Fourier based OCT installed. The patient interface remains the same as that previously cleared for the VICTUS Platform. The VICTUS Platform uses vacuum to affix a suction ring to the corneal surface prior to use. There is no change to vacuum suction or force pressure related to the patient interface as compared to that previously described and cleared in K151161.
The VICTUS Platform mode of operation and the technology used to create the cutting action are identical to the predicate VICTUS Platform device (K151161), and therefore substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device.
The following technological differences exist between the subject and predicate devices:
a) Grid lens fragmentation pattern
The predicate VICTUS Platform includes clearance for several available lens fragmentation patterns including circular, radial, and a combination of circular and radial cuts. The v3.3 software introduces a new grid fragmentation pattern to the already available fragmentation patterns.
b) Apex detection feature
The predicate VICTUS system includes clearance for detection of pupil and lens surface. The v3.3 software introduces an apex detection feature which marks the apex location and provides an automated centration of the capsulotomy and lens fragmentation on the apex of the crystalline lens during treatment planning. The feature is being introduced as a user convenience and the physician must still review positioning results and confirm the treatment plan prior to initiating treatment.
c) S60 Bed option
A new bed configuration is being introduced that provides three locking positions as follows:
| 0°: | Position for treatment |
|---|---|
| 16.5°: | Position for centering the patient interface (PI) or suction ring |
| 60°: | Position for patient entrance/exit |
7
In order to minimize manufacturing costs, it has been determined to package the predicate VICTUS contacting lens from the patient interface kit (SKU 90000115) with the suction clip from the predicate VICTUS patient interface kit (SKU 90000145) into one convenient package for the user ( this new kit will be known as the VERAFIT patient interface kit -SKU 90000200TPV).
VII. Performance Data
Biocompatibility testing
No new biocompatibility testing was performed to support this premarket notification.
