Device Description

The LENSAR Laser System - fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) with Streamline™ is a medical device for use in ophthalmic surgery. The device utilizes a pulsed laser that can be used to cut a precision capsulotomy in the anterior lens capsule, to fragment the cataractous lens for removal during cataract surgery, and to create full and partial thickness single-plane and multi-plane arc cuts/ incisions in the cornea, each of which may be performed either individually or consecutively during the same procedure. The device is also intended for use in the creation of pocket cuts/ incisions in the cornea in patients undergoing ophthalmic surgery, and in the creation of a corneal flap in patients undergoing treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea, each of which may only be performed individually.

Use of the laser provides automated precision control of the size of the capsular opening; the type and parameters of laser fragmentation treatment within the lens; the size, architecture, and location of full thickness incisions within the cornea; the size, architecture, location, depth, and quantity of partial thickness incisions within the cornea; and the size, architecture, and depth of pocket and flap cuts.

The LENSAR Laser System – fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) with Streamline™ includes the integration with pre-op analysis devices, automated Iris Registration with automatic cyclorotation adjustment, IntelliAxis" corneal and capsule marking for simple alignment of Toric IOLs as well as treatment planning tools for precision-guided laser treatments.

AI/ML Overview

This document describes the LENSAR Laser System - fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) and its performance data in support of its 510(k) submission (K173346) for new indications: creation of corneal pockets and corneal flaps.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

Acceptance Criteria CategorySpecific CriteriaReported Device Performance
Accuracy of depthAchieved depth within established requirementsAchieved depth well within established requirements for both pocket and flap.
Parallelism of bedAchieved depth at multiple points (tangential/sagittal planes) within specification of measured depthAchieved depth at several points of both tangential and sagittal planes (i.e., parallelism) was well within the specification of the measured depth for both the pocket and flap.
Effect on endothelial cellsNo loss of endothelial cell densityNo loss of endothelial cell density when a sufficiently large residual corneal bed is maintained (from a previous study).
IOP riseConsistent with commercially available applanating PIDsConsistent with other commercially available applanating PIDs.
Eye stability during surgeryMinimum force to detach eye from suction ring for new PID higher or equivalent to existing PIDMinimum force necessary to detach the porcine eye from the suction ring was higher for the curved contact PID versus that of LENSAR's existing PID.
Retinal burn hazardNo increase in hazardNo increase in hazard following a retinal burn hazard analysis for the addition of corneal pockets and flaps.
Incision quality (Pocket/Flap)Acceptable ease of opening, ease of separation, smoothness of bed surfaceJudgement of a board-certified ophthalmic surgeon indicated "Yes" for acceptability for each factor, consistent with the predicate device.
Bed smoothness (Pocket/Flap)Consistent with predicate deviceJudgement of the same surgeon indicated bed smoothness was consistent with that of the predicate device using donor eyes.
Corneal foldsNo visible foldsNo visible folds noted in OCT images when compared to a commercially available applanating PID.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

The study primarily utilized a porcine ex vivo eye model for most of the performance evaluations related to corneal pockets and flaps. Specific sample sizes for each test are not explicitly provided in the document.
Data provenance is retrospective as it refers to testing done in support of the submission. The origin of the porcine eyes is not specified. For some tests, human donor eyes were also used, but their provenance is not detailed either.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts:

For the evaluation of incision quality and bed smoothness, the ground truth was established by:

  • A board-certified ophthalmic surgeon.
    The document does not specify the number of years of experience of the surgeon, nor if multiple surgeons were involved for different assessments.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

For the human-graded assessments (incision quality and bed smoothness), the adjudication method appears to be none, as the decisions were based on the "judgement of the surgeon," implying a single expert opinion without a formal consensus or tie-breaking process.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done to assess the improvement of human readers with AI vs. without AI assistance. The device is a surgical laser system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human readers.

6. Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Study:

Yes, a standalone study was conducted as the performance data directly assesses the capabilities of the laser system itself (e.g., accuracy of depth, parallelism, incision quality) rather than its interaction with human interpretation or decision-making in a diagnostic context. This is a surgical device performing physical actions.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

The ground truth used was a combination of:

  • Measurement against intended specifications: For objective metrics like depth accuracy, parallelism, and IOP rise.
  • Expert subjective assessment: For qualitative metrics like incision quality (ease of opening, separation, smoothness) and bed smoothness, evaluated by a board-certified ophthalmic surgeon.
  • Imaging (OCT): For assessing corneal folds.
  • Biological effects: For endothelial cell density, based on previous studies.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

This information is not provided in the document. The document describes performance testing for new indications, not a machine learning model that would typically have a separate training set. The "software verification and validation testing" refers to the system's software, not an AI/ML algorithm that is trained on a dataset.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

As no training set is mentioned for an AI/ML model, this information is not applicable. The ground truth establishment described above pertains to the validation of the device's physical performance characteristics.

K141476WaveLight® FS200 Laser SystemAlcon Laboratories, Inc.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION 4.0

The LENSAR Laser System - fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) with Streamline™ is a medical device for use in ophthalmic surgery. The device utilizes a pulsed laser that can be used to cut a precision capsulotomy in the anterior lens capsule, to fragment the cataractous lens for removal during cataract surgery, and to create full and partial thickness single-plane and multi-plane arc cuts/ incisions in the cornea, each of which may be performed either individually or consecutively during the same procedure. The device is also intended for use in the creation of pocket cuts/ incisions in the cornea in patients undergoing ophthalmic surgery, and in the creation of a corneal flap in patients undergoing treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea, each of which may only be performed individually.

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

Use of the laser provides automated precision control of the size of the capsular opening; the type and parameters of laser fragmentation treatment within the lens; the size, architecture, and location of full thickness incisions within the cornea; the size, architecture, location, depth, and quantity of partial thickness incisions within the cornea; and the size, architecture, and depth of pocket and flap cuts.

The LENSAR Laser System – fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) with Streamline™ includes the integration with pre-op analysis devices, automated Iris Registration with automatic cyclorotation adjustment, IntelliAxis" corneal and capsule marking for simple alignment of Toric IOLs as well as treatment planning tools for precision-guided laser treatments.

INDICATIONS FOR USE 5.0

The LENSAR Laser System – fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) with Streamline™ is an ophthalmic surgical laser indicated for use:

  • in the creation of an anterior capsulotomy; ●
  • in patients undergoing surgery requiring laser-assisted fragmentation of the cataractous ● lens;
  • . in the creation of full and partial thickness single-plane and multi-plane arc cuts/incisions in the cornea;
  • in patients undergoing ophthalmic surgery or other treatments requiring pocket cuts/ ● incisions in the cornea; and
  • . in the creation of a corneal flap in patients undergoing treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea.

COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE 6.0 PREDICATE DEVICE

All elements of the proposed device remain unchanged from that cleared under K171337 except for the following technological differences:

{5}------------------------------------------------

7.0 PERFORMANCE DATA

The following performance data were undertaken in support of the substantial equivalence determination.

Performance Evaluation of the Corneal Pockets and Corneal Flaps Feature:

Verification and validation testing were completed to demonstrate that the proposed device performance complies with specifications and requirements identified for the LENSAR use in corneal pockets and corneal flaps. Each function and/or feature was verified through unit testing and system testing by means of the appropriate test case or test specification. The unit/system verification test reports provide the test cases, expected results for each test case, and the actual results obtained. All criteria for this testing were met and the results demonstrate that the LENSAR corneal pockets and corneal flaps feature meets all performance specifications and requirements. The objectives defined in the validation plan were achieved according to the validation results. The software on the proposed LLS-fs 3D System has been updated in support of the changes outlined above.

Performance data supporting substantial equivalence is summarized as follows:

  • . The accuracy of the depth of the pocket and flap was tested using a porcine ex vivo eye model. The depth of the pocket and flap were measured using an optical coherence tomographer over various depths and compared to the intended depth. The study showed that the achieved depth was well within the established requirements for depth for both the pocket and flap.
  • An analysis of the parallelism of the bed for both the created pocket and flap, ● respectively, was tested using a porcine ex vivo eye model. The study consisted of using the laser to cut a pocket and flap at various depths and measuring by means of an OCT. The achieved depth on several points of both the tangential and sagittal planes was measured and compared to the intended depth. The study showed that the achieved depth at several points of both the tangential and sagittal planes (i.e., parallelism) was well within the specification of the measured depth for both the pocket and flap.
  • . Evaluation (from a previous study) of the effect of the laser partial thickness incisions on endothelial cells of ex vivo eyes showed that the laser method results in no loss of endothelial cell density when a sufficiently large residual corneal bed is maintained.
  • . An analysis of IOP rise as a result of the new curved contact PID was completed. A study was performed using porcine eyes, comparing the new curved contact PID to LENSAR's existing PID (already pre-market cleared) and to other applanating PIDs commercially available. The results show the new proposed curved contact PID was consistent with (as it relates to IOP pressure rise) other applanating PIDs that are commercially available.
  • An analysis of eye stability during surgery with the new curved contact PID as compared ● to LENSAR's current PID (already pre-market cleared) was performed. The results show that after the application of the suction, the minimum force necessary to detach the

{6}------------------------------------------------

porcine eye from the suction ring was higher for the curved contact PID versus that of LENSAR's existing PID.

  • A review of the hazard analysis of all potential hazards to the patient, surgeon and other . system operators was performed to consider all changes to the proposed LLS-fs 3D device. The hazard analysis demonstrates that all potential hazards have acceptable levels of probability/severity characteristics. Specifically, an eye safety analysis was conducted. The retinal burn hazard analysis for the addition of corneal pockets and flaps showed no increase in hazard.
  • For both the pocket and flap an assessment of the incision quality was conducted comprised of the following:
    • Ease of opening at the entrance to the pocket and flap, O
    • Ease of separation of the incision layers, and O
    • Smoothness of the bed surface was acceptable. O

The study consisted of using the laser to cut a pocket at various depths in porcine eyes. A board certified ophthalmic surgeon, using standard instruments, was asked to grade (Yes/No) the acceptability for each of the factors above. The entire test was re-done for the corneal flap. The results showed that, in the judgement of the surgeon, each of the factors was consistent with that of the predicate device.

In addition, using donor eyes, the same surgeon compared the bed smoothness of both the pocket and the flap created by the proposed device to that of the predicate device. Again, the results showed that, in the judgement of the surgeon, the bed smoothness was consistent with that of the predicate device.

  • An analysis of the potential to have corneal folds as a result of the new curved contact ● PID as compared to a commercially available applanating PID was assessed. Using OCT images, no visible folds were noted.
    In all cases, the test results showed that the added features meet the performance specifications and requirements. The comparison shows that the proposed LENSAR Laser System - fs 3D is substantially equivalent to the WaveLight® FS200 Laser System (K141476) for the indication of use in the creation of pockets and flaps.

The minor differences between the additional LENSAR device feature and the predicate device do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness.

Biocompatibility Testing:

Biocompatibility evaluations of materials coming in contact with the patient fluid path in the LENSAR Laser System - fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) were conducted in accordance with national/ international recognized standards.

As part of the new indication sought in this submission, a new PID Kit (curved contact PID Kit) is required. The only difference between this new curved contact PID Kit and that which was detailed and cleared in prior device files is the addition of a curved contact lens that is bonded to

{7}------------------------------------------------

the suction ring allowing for good suction and eye stability over the entire cornea while ensuring a good consistent quality laser cut in the cornea for the new indication. This new curved contact PID Kit is sterilized via EO (ethylene oxide).

Based on the biocompatibility risk evaluation for the curved contact PID Kits, and the fact that the PID Kit touches the mucous membrane for approximately less than 5 minutes, the following testing was required: cytotoxicity, irritation, and sensitization. These tests were performed by an outside nationally recognized laboratory using Good Laboratory Practices. All tests passed.

The PID Interface Arm is multi-use and is sterilized by autoclaving. There were no changes to the material or assembly of the PID Interface Arm as part of this submission and thus remains unchanged from prior device files.

Software Verification and Validation Testing:

A complete software verification and validation testing was conducted covering all cited changes and updates since the prior clearance (K171337), and documentation was provided as recommended by FDA's "Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices." The software for this device was considered as a "major" level of concern, since a failure or latent flaw in the software could directly result in serious injury to the patient or operator.

Summary of Clinical Studies:

The addition of the corneal pockets and corneal flaps indications for use to the LENSAR Laser System did not require clinical performance data to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate device.

8.0 CONCLUSIONS

The activities used to evaluate the LENSAR Laser System - fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) and the information provided in this 510(k) submission do not identify any new issues of safety or effectiveness.

Based on the above supportive information, the proposed LENSAR Laser System - fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) is substantially equivalent with respect to safety and effectiveness and indication for use as cleared in the K141476 predicate device (WaveLight® FS200 Laser System).
