The Catalys® Precision Laser System is indicated for use in patients undergoing cataract surgery for removal of the crystalline lens. Intended uses in cataract surgery include anterior capsulotomy, phacofragmentation, and the creation of 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.
Catalys® Precision Laser System is an ophthalmic surgical laser system used in healthcare facilities such as hospitals, Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs) and surgeon office settings. The Catalys® Precision Laser System is an electromedical device which contains software. System components include a single-use Liquid Optics™ Interface and optional Mobile Patient Bed.
The Catalys® Precision Laser System (also referred to as the Catalys® System or System) is an ophthalmic surgical laser system indicated for use in cataract surgery to create a precise anterior capsulotomy and/or to effect lens fragmentation, thus facilitating efficient lens removal. The System also creates 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 System employs femtosecond ("FS") laser technology with integrated Optical Coherence Tomography ("OCT"), all of which are controlled and monitored by dedicated electronics. The System utilizes a common optical path for the OCT and femtosecond treatment laser (including the three-dimensional scanner and Liquid Optics™ [patient] Interface). As such, the beams are intrinsically co-registered and provide for precise overlap between imaging and treatment beams. Ocular surfaces recognized by the system software include anatomy within the anterior chamber, such as the anterior and posterior corneal surfaces and the anterior and posterior surfaces of the crystalline lens. Detailed axial or sagittal cross-sectional views are available via OCT, to demarcate proposed incisions versus adjacent ocular structures (for example, iris, pupil and limbus).
The Catalys® Precision Laser System laser classification per 21 CFR 1040.10 and 21 CFR 1040.11 is Class 4.
This document describes the CATALYS® Precision Laser System, specifically focusing on the acceptance criteria and study that proves the device meets those criteria for a modified Liquid Optics Interface (LOI).
Here's an breakdown of the requested information:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The submission describes bench testing performed to confirm the ability of the Gen3 LOI to meet its intended use. The acceptance criteria themselves are explicitly stated as "All acceptance criteria were met" for various tests, implying successful completion against predefined benchmarks. The document also states, "The acceptance criteria remain unchanged between Gen2 and Gen3 LOI." While specific quantitative criteria are not listed in a table format within the provided text, the document asserts that they were met. The reported performance is that the device did meet these (unspecified) criteria.
| Acceptance Criteria Category | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Sterilization Cycle Validity | All acceptance criteria were met. (Minimum 10-6 SAL achieved) |
| Performance Testing (Baseline & Aged) | All acceptance criteria were met. |
| Biocompatibility (Colorant) | No leaching and no cytotoxicity for the minor colorant addition. |
| Overall Safety and Effectiveness | The device remains safe and effective for its intended use and is substantially equivalent. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document mentions "bench testing" and "performance testing conducted for the Gen3 LOI." It indicates testing was done at "baseline time point T=0 (before aging) and at T=24 (after accelerated aging equivalent to 24 months)." However, the exact sample size for any of these tests is not specified in the provided text. The data provenance is stated as from the manufacturer's own internal testing, specifically AMO Manufacturing USA, LLC, which is a retrospective evaluation of a new manufacturing process for an existing component.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications
The document does not describe the use of human experts to establish "ground truth" for the technical performance tests. These tests (sterilization, performance, biocompatibility) typically rely on standardized protocols and instrumental measurements against engineering specifications, rather than subjective expert assessment.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable, as the testing described focuses on objective technical performance criteria (e.g., sterilization assurance, mechanical integrity, biocompatibility) rather than subjective assessments requiring adjudication.
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 proposed device does not include any changes to the indications for use or intended use of the primary predicate device. It does not introduce any new harms or unacceptable risks, and therefore does not require clinical testing to assess safety and performance or to demonstrate equivalence."
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
This device is an ophthalmic laser system for cataract surgery with a modified patient-user interface. It is a physical medical device, not an AI or algorithm-only product. Therefore, the concept of "standalone performance" in the context of an algorithm is not applicable. The performance evaluated here is the physical and functional performance of the device's components.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth for the evaluations conducted ("sterilization cycle validation," "performance testing," and "biocompatibility testing") would be established by:
- Sterilization Validation: Meeting a predefined Sterility Assurance Level (e.g., 10-6 SAL) through standard microbiological challenge tests as defined by ISO 11135 and AAMI TIR28.
- Performance Testing: Adherence to engineering specifications and design requirements for the Liquid Optics Interface (LOI), ensuring it functions correctly with the CATALYS® Precision Laser System.
- Biocompatibility Testing: Compliance with biocompatibility standards (e.g., ISO 10993) demonstrating no cytotoxic effects or leaching for the specified materials.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. This submission is for a modification to a physical medical device component, not for an AI/machine learning algorithm that requires a "training set." The changes involve manufacturing site, sterilization parameters, and a colorant change for a single-use interface.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable, as there is no training set for an AI/machine learning algorithm described in this document.

{5}------------------------------------------------
[807.92(a)(6)] Technical Characteristics
Technological Characteristics:
The modified System is unchanged in regard to its technological characteristics, indications for use, and intended uses. The scope of change for this submission is constrained to only the sterile, single-use patient-user interface (known as Liquid Optics Interface or LOI) that will be manufactured by an alternate third-party-manufacturer (TPM) Flextronics Medical (Tijuana, Mexico also known as Flex). The project name given to establishing Flex as an alternate manufacturer is Gen3 LOI, and therefore hereon the subject device will be referred to as Gen3 LOI (it does not indicate a new version of the device). The Gen2 LOI manufactured by current TPM, Juno Pacific (Soquel, CA, USA), remains unchanged.
The only modifications made to Gen3 LOI are: 1) a minor modification of sterilization cycle parameters (without change of modality or the sterility assurance level), 2) the use of alternate colorant in the Suction Seal Ring sub assembly and 3) removal of unnecessary feature in the form of tabs originally intended to hold the lens cone when not in use. These changes are minor and are intended to improve manufacturing capacity and reduce production costs. These changes do not introduce new risks, do not impact the safety, efficacy, nor substantial equivalence of the device.
Bench testing was performed to confirm the ability of the Gen3 LOI to meet the intended use with the System and to ensure that no new risks or adverse effects have been introduced, due to the proposed changes. Testing included sterilization cycle validation, sub-system level verification as well as system validation, shelf-life and biocompatibility testing.

Substantial Equivalence Summary
{7}------------------------------------------------
[807.92(b)(1)] Determination of Substantial Equivalence
| Non-ClinicalPerformance Data: | Bench testing of the System (K210701, cleared on April 7, 2021) in regard to the delivering a variety of laser patterns intended for capsulotomy, phacofragmentation and corneal incisions with corresponding accuracy and precision is directly applicable to the subject device since there are no changes to the Catalys System's hardware nor software. |
|---|---|
| Also, all bench testing, previously performed for the Gen2 Liquid Optic interface manufactured by Juno Pacific, Soquel, CA (reference device resident in K170322, cleared May 19, 2017) is directly applicable and unchanged. All testing subject to this submission is limited to the Gen3 LOI. | |
| Sterilization cycle validation for the Gen3 LOI was carried out using the conservative overkill approach and as defined by ISO 11135 and AAMI TIR28 (as applicable). Like the sterilization cycle of the reference device, the subject |
{8}------------------------------------------------
[807.92(b)(1)] Determination of Substantial Equivalence
sterilization cycle utilizes a 100% Ethylene Oxide (EO) sterilization modality resulting in a minimum 10-6 SAL. All acceptance criteria were met.
| Performance testing conducted for the Gen3 LOI has been carried outaccording to the same principles and included the same tests as for thereference Gen2 LOI. Tests were performed at baseline time point T=0 (beforeaging) and at T=24 (after accelerated aging equivalent to 24 months). Theacceptance criteria remain unchanged between Gen2 and Gen3 LOI. Allacceptance criteria have been met. | |
|---|---|
| Biocompatibility testing was performed to demonstrate that the colorant usedin the processing of the Suction Seal Ring sub assembly of the Gen3 LOI isbiocompatible for the finished sterile product configuration. Testingconfirmed no leaching and no cytotoxicity for this minor colorant addition. | |
| Bench testing presented for the subject device provides reasonable assurancethat the System with the LOI remains safe and effective for its intended useand furthermore, that it is substantially equivalent to the identified referencedevice. | |
| Clinical PerformanceData: | The proposed device does not include any changes to the indications for useor intended use of the primary predicate device. It does not introduce any newharms or unacceptable risks, and therefore does not require clinical testing toassess safety and performance or to demonstrate equivalence.The performance data demonstrated that the device performs as intended. |
[807.92(b)(3)] Conclusion
Conclusions from Non-The modified Catalys Precision Laser System is substantially equivalent to the Clinical and Clinical currently cleared Catalys Precision Laser System. The changes in the LOI do Tests: not raise new questions of safety and efficacy of the device. The Catalys Precision Laser System is substantially equivalent to the predicate in terms of indications for use, technological characteristics and fundamental scientific technology. The mechanism of laser cutting is the same for both systems, in that the ultra-short laser pulses create a highly localized plasma and subsequent cavitation event that, when controlled by a computerized scanning system, direct the laser beam through a three-dimensional pattern to produce a precise capsulotomy, fragment the crystalline lens and create arc cuts/incisions in the cornea.
