Intended Use
For storage of soft (hydrophilic), and rigid gas permeable (RGP) hard contact lenses during disinfection with buffered 3% hydrogen peroxide contact lens solution.
Device Description
The device is a specialized lens case consisting of a transparent cup with a connected unit of screw cap, lens holders (baskets) and platinum-coated neutralization disc. The platinum catalyst coating and shape of the plastic disc are designed to effectively neutralize hydrogen peroxide in the lens care system to harmless water and oxygen gas.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical and chemical properties of the lens case and neutralization disc, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
The device is a lens case described for storage and neutralization of hydrogen peroxide, not for treating or diagnosing a medical condition.

No
The device is a lens case designed for the storage and disinfection of contact lenses using hydrogen peroxide. It does not perform any diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components (transparent cup, screw cap, lens holders, platinum-coated neutralization disc) and performance studies focus on biocompatibility, physicochemical, and design functionality tests of these physical components.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the storage of contact lenses during disinfection with a specific hydrogen peroxide solution. This is a process related to the care and maintenance of a medical device (contact lenses), not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample to determine a medical condition.
  • Device Description: The device is a lens case with a neutralization disc. Its function is to facilitate the chemical process of neutralizing hydrogen peroxide. This is a physical/chemical process, not a diagnostic measurement or analysis.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting biomarkers, or providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of a disease or condition.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This device does not fit that description.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The AOCup Lens Case with AODisc and the changed gasket was evaluated in biocompatibility, physicochemical and design functionality tests.

Toxicological safety has been tested and confirmed in a battery of tests of the new silicone as well as the new coating material in accordance with the subparts of standard ISO 10993. Furthermore, extractable and leachable testing of the coated and uncoated gaskets has been conducted in accordance with USP and EP requirements.

Design functionality tests were conducted to confirm that the coating adheres reliably to the silicone material and does not affect negatively any functionality characteristics of the gasket in the lens case assembly.

Successful results of all nonclinical testing supported the substantial equivalence and therefore safety and efficacy of the modified AOCup Lens Case with AODisc to the existing product for its intended use.

Dear Ralf Finke:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration. Iisting of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

IV. Device Description

The AOCup Lens Case with AODisc is equivalent to the predicate device except change to the silicone material of a gasket and the coating of this silicone gasket. The gasket has O-ring form and is included in the screw cap assembly of the lens case.

5

AOCup Lens Case with AODisc - Parylene

The device is a specialized lens case consisting of a transparent cup with a connected unit of screw cap, lens holders (baskets) and platinum-coated neutralization disc. The platinum catalyst coating and shape of the plastic disc are designed to effectively neutralize hydrogen peroxide in the lens care system to harmless water and oxygen gas.

The modifications of gasket material and coating do not change any indications for use nor the basic technical principle of the device functions.

Indications for Use V.

For storage of soft (hydrophilic), and rigid gas permeable (RGP) hard contact lenses during disinfection with buffered 3% hydrogen peroxide contact lens solution.

VI. Comparison to Technological Characteristics with the Predicate Device

The silicone material and its coating of an o-ring gasket in the screw cap of predicate device AOCup Lens Case cleared in 510k K162597 has been changed to a different silicone material and different coating. Dimensions and technical function of the gasket are unchanged.

VII. Performance Data

The AOCup Lens Case with AODisc and the changed gasket was evaluated in biocompatibility, physicochemical and design functionality tests.

6

AOCup Lens Case with AODisc - Parylene

Toxicological safety has been tested and confirmed in a battery of tests of the new silicone as well as the new coating material in accordance with the subparts of standard ISO 10993. Furthermore, extractable and leachable testing of the coated and uncoated gaskets has been conducted in accordance with USP and EP requirements.

Design functionality tests were conducted to confirm that the coating adheres reliably to the silicone material and does not affect negatively any functionality characteristics of the gasket in the lens case assembly.

VIII. Conclusions

Successful results of all nonclinical testing supported the substantial equivalence and therefore safety and efficacy of the modified AOCup Lens Case with AODisc to the existing product for its intended use.
