Intended Use
Spherical and Aspheric Ethos Aquell (Hioxifilcon A) Spherical and Aspheric One-Day Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses (59% Water) are indicated for daily wear for the correction of ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) in aphakic and/or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes in powers from +10.00 to -20.00 diopters. The lenses may be worn by persons who exhibit astigmatism of 1.00 diopters or less that does not interfere with visual acuity. Toric Ethos Aquell (Hioxifilcon A) Toric One-Day Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses (59% Water) are indicated for daily wear for the correction of ametropia (myopia or hyperopia with astigmatism) in aphakic and/or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes in powers from +10.00 to -20.00 diopters and astigmatic corrections from -0.50 to -6.00 diopters. The lenses are intended for single-use disposable wear.
Device Description
The Ethos Aquell (Hioxifilcon A) One-Day Soft (Hydrophilic) Contact Lenses (59% Water) are clear, visibility-tinted and include UV blocker-containing. The lens is available in spherical, aspherical and toric designs. It is an non-ionic hydrogel lens Hioxifilcon derived from of 2-Hydroxyethylmethacrylate (2-HEMA) and 2,3-Dihydroxypropyl Methacrylate (GlycerolMethacrylate, GMA), cross-linked with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) and made by photo-polymerization. It consists of 41% Hioxifilcon A and 59% water by weight when immersed in buffered solution. There are two types of buffer solution. one is borate solution (Saline 2); another one is borate solution with sodium hyaluronate (Saline 1). The lens polymer further contains a benzotriazole UV absorbing monomer and thus is able to block UV radiation. The lens is visibly tined with "Reactive Blue19" color additive, 21 CFR part 73.3121.
More Information

No
The summary describes a standard contact lens made of a specific material and design, with no mention of AI or ML in its function, manufacturing, or intended use.

No.
The device is indicated for corrected vision (ametropia), not for therapy or treatment of any eye condition.

No

Explanation: The document describes contact lenses intended for the correction of ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) and astigmatism. It focuses on the physical properties and safety of the lenses for vision correction, not on diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical contact lens made of a hydrogel material, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples such as blood, urine, or tissue that have been taken from the human body to detect diseases or other conditions.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that this device is a contact lens intended for daily wear to correct vision problems (ametropia). It is placed directly on the eye, not used to test samples taken from the body.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies mentioned focus on the physical properties, biocompatibility, and manufacturing of the contact lens itself, not on diagnostic testing of biological samples.

Therefore, the Ethos Aquell contact lens falls under the category of a medical device, but not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

(a)
Identification. A soft (hydrophilic) contact lens is a device intended to be worn directly against the cornea and adjacent limbal and scleral areas of the eye to correct vision conditions or act as a therapeutic bandage. The device is made of various polymer materials the main polymer molecules of which absorb or attract a certain volume (percentage) of water.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II if the device is intended for daily wear only.(2) Class III if the device is intended for extended wear.
