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 arc cuts/incisions in the cornea;
- in patients undergoing ophthalmic surgery or other treatments requiring pocket cuts/ incisions in the cornea;
- in the creation of a corneal flap in patients undergoing treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea;
- in patients undergoing surgery or other treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea to create tunnels for placement of corneal ring segments; and
- in the creation of partial thickness single-plane radial cuts/incisions in the cornea.
The 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, in the creation of a corneal flap in patients undergoing treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea, and in patients undergoing surgery or other treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea to create tunnels for placement of corneal ring segments, each of which may only be performed individually. Additionally, the device is also intended for use in the creation of partial thickness single-plane radial cuts/incisions in the cornea which may be performed individually or consecutively with arcuate incisions.
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. flap, and tunnel cuts.
The LLS-fs 3D with Streamline™ includes the integration with pre-op analysis devices, automated Iris Registration with automatic cyclorotation adjustment, IntelliAxis-C™ (corneal) and IntelliAxis-L™ (lens) markers for simple alignment of Toric IOLs as well as treatment planning tools for precision-guided laser treatments.
Acceptance Criteria and Study for LENSAR Laser System - fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D)
The information provided describes the performance evaluation conducted for the LENSAR Laser System - fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) to support its substantial equivalence, particularly concerning new indications for use related to corneal ring segments and radial incisions.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
| Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Corneal Tunnel Depth Accuracy | Achieved depth was "well within the established requirements" for corneal tunnel depth. |
| Corneal Tunnel Incision Quality & Ease of Opening | Demonstrated "ease of opening and quality of incision quality that was acceptable." |
| Radial Incision Depth Accuracy (individual or with arcuate incisions) | Achieved depth was "well within the established requirements" for radial incision depth. |
| Radial Incision Quality & Ease of Opening (individual or with arcuate incisions) | Demonstrated "ease of opening and quality of incision quality that was acceptable." |
| Effect on Endothelial Cells from Partial Thickness Incisions | "No loss of endothelial cell density when a sufficiently large residual corneal bed is maintained." |
| Hazard Analysis | All potential hazards have "acceptable levels of probability/severity characteristics." |
| Software Verification and Validation | All criteria were met, demonstrating the software meets all performance specifications and requirements. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size: Not explicitly stated as a number of eyes, but the studies were conducted on porcine ex vivo eye models.
- Data Provenance: The data is from pre-clinical testing on porcine ex vivo eye models. This indicates an in vitro or ex vivo setting, not human clinical data.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications
- For the assessment of incision quality (corneal tunnel and radial incisions), a "trained biomedical scientist" was used.
- No further details are provided regarding the number of scientists, their specific qualifications, or years of experience.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- Not explicitly stated. For the incision quality assessment, it mentions "A trained biomedical scientist... assessed the acceptability," implying a single assessor or a consensus not detailed.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done
- No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The submission explicitly states: "The addition of the added indications for use and other minor changes... did not require clinical performance data to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate device."
- Therefore, there is no effect size of human readers improving with or without AI assistance.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- The performance data presented focuses on the device's ability to create precise cuts and tunnels. While the device uses software and imaging for guidance (Iris Registration, IntelliAxis, CustomFrag), the performance evaluation described directly assesses the physical outcomes of the laser treatment on anatomical models. It does not describe a "standalone" algorithmic performance in the typical sense of an AI model making diagnostic or prescriptive decisions without human oversight or direct intervention. The device itself is a surgical tool controlled by a surgeon.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- Instrumental measurements: For depth accuracy, an optical coherence tomographer was used.
- Expert assessment: For incision quality, a trained biomedical scientist performed the assessment.
- Biological assessment: Evaluation of endothelial cells of ex vivo eyes for cell density loss.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
- The document does not explicitly state the sample size for any training set. The performance data presented is for verification and validation testing, which often refers to testing on a held-out set after development. There is no information provided about how the device's algorithms or parameters (e.g., for depth placement, cut patterns, image analysis) were internally trained or developed.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
- This information is not provided in the document. As no training set size is stated, the method for establishing its ground truth is also absent. The document focuses on the validation studies performed to demonstrate the device meets specifications, rather than the internal development or training processes of its embedded software/algorithms.

- LENSAR estimate only (some WaveLight® parameters were not in the public domain as of this writing and, therefore, LENSAR estimates cannot be confirmed).
The laser parameters that differ slightly from the predicate device (K141476) are Pulse Duration, Repetition Rate, and Maximum Pulse Energy (listed in the table above). The settings for these parameters are based on pre-clinical testing results. Included in this process is the optimization of additional treatment parameters. Clinical safety and effectiveness of tunnels for corneal ring segments are qualified by: a) incision depth accuracy, b) ring tunnel depth regularity, c) ring tunnel incision quality, and whether the incision after the ICRS insertion is acceptable.
PERFORMANCE DATA 7.0
The following performance data were undertaken in support of the substantial equivalence determination.
Performance Evaluation:
Verification and validation testing were completed to demonstrate that the proposed device performance complies with specifications and requirements identified for the LENSAR Laser System - fs 3D. 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 System with the new indications and other software changes meets all performance specifications and requirements. The objectives defined in the validation plan were achieved
{10}------------------------------------------------
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 corneal tunnel was tested using a porcine ex vivo eve . model. The depth of the tunnel was 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 of the corneal tunnel.
- For both the corneal tunnel and radial incisions in combination with arcuate incisions an . assessment of the incision quality was conducted. The study consisted of using the laser to cut corneal tunnel and radial incisions (individually or in combination with arcuate incisions) at various depths in porcine eyes. A trained biomedical scientist, using standard instruments, assessed the acceptability for each as it relates to ease of opening and incision quality. The results showed that the proposed device showed ease of opening and quality of incision quality that was acceptable.
- . 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.
- . The accuracy of the depth of the radial incisions in combination with arcuate incisions was tested using a porcine ex vivo eye model. The depth of the radial and arcuate incisions was 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 of the radial incision individually or in combination with the arcuate incision.
- . 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.
In all cases, the test results showed that the new indications and other minor changes meet the performance specifications and requirements. The comparison with the predicate devices shows that the proposed LENSAR Laser System – fs 3D is substantially equivalent to the WayeLight® FS200 Laser System (K141476) for the indication of use in the creation of corneal tunnels and to the LENSAR Laser System - fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) for the indication of use in the creation of partial thickness single planed radial incisions.
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:
The Patient Interface Device (PID) Kits have no changes to the material or assembly as part of this submission and thus remains unchanged from that used with the previously cleared device (K181430).
{11}------------------------------------------------
The PID Ring Arm is multi-use and is sterilized by autoclaving. There were no changes to the material or assembly of the PID Ring 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 (K181430), 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 added indications for use and other minor changes as described in Section 6 above for use with the LENSAR Laser System did not require clinical performance data to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate device.
CONCLUSIONS 8.0
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) with the new indications are substantially equivalent with respect to safety and effectiveness and indication for use as cleared in:
