Intended Use

The Digital Prism Correction Feature (DPCF) is software that is intended to provide digital image adjustments in Apple Vision Pro in accordance with a user's prism prescription.

DPCF is available for users with prism in their eyeglass prescription also includes other parts (e.g., sphere, cylinder, ADD), which can be fulfilled by optical inserts, the DPCF fulfills the prism part of the prescription while using Apple Vision Pro.

DPCF supports prism prescriptions up to 7.75 Prism Diopters (PD) in the horizontal and/or vertical dimensions (i.e., baseup, base-down, base-in, base-out), per eye.

Device Description

The Digital Prism Correction Feature (DPCF) is intended to provide a high quality visual experience in Apple Vision Pro spatial computing applications for users with a prism prescription. Specifically, the DPCF is software that is intended to provide digital image adjustments in Apple Vision Pro in accordance with a user's prism prescription, in the horizontal and/or vertical dimensions. DPCF fulfills the prism part of an eyeglass prescription. When an eyeglass prescription also includes other parts (e.g., sphere, cylinder, ADD), DPCF fulfills the prism part of the prescription, while prescription optical inserts fulfill the other parts of the prescription.

The DPCF achieves its intended use by converting a user's prism prescription into digital image adjustment parameters that are utilized by the spatial computing image system to automatically provide digital image adjustments in horizontal and/or vertical dimensions in accordance with a user's prism prescription. At this time, DPCF supports prism prescriptions up to 7.75 Prism Diopters (PD) in the horizontal and/or vertical dimensions (i.e. base-down, base-in, base-out), per eye.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document, a 510(k) summary for Apple's Digital Prism Correction Feature (DPCF), outlines the acceptance criteria and the study conducted to prove the device meets these criteria.

Here's the breakdown:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

Acceptance Criteria (What the device must achieve)Reported Device Performance (How the device performed)
Provide prismatic adjustments in accordance with a prism prescription.The bench validation testing demonstrated that the DPCF provides prismatic adjustments in accordance with a prism prescription.
Meet the prism tolerance requirements specified in ISO 8980-1:2017.The results validate that the digital image adjustments provided by DPCF meet the prism tolerance requirements specified in ISO 8980-1:2017.
Provide reliable and acceptable prism adjustments for the available prism adjustment range (up to 7.75 Prism Diopters (PD) in horizontal and/or vertical dimensions, per eye).The results demonstrate that the DPCF provides reliable and acceptable prism adjustments for the available prism adjustment range. (Maximum supported range is 7.75 PD horizontal and/or vertical, per eye).
Perform as intended with and without optical inserts.The results demonstrate that the DPCF performs as intended with and without optical inserts.
The general purpose spatial computing platform (Apple Vision Pro) and its "other functions" do not adversely affect DPCF's ability to meet standardized prism tolerances.The impact of the general purpose spatial computing platform on DPCF was assessed as part of the feature's risk management, verification, and validation activities, and determined to be acceptable. (This implies it does not adversely affect performance).
Software appropriately designed, verified, and validated (based on FDA guidance "Content of Premarket Submissions for Device Software Functions").Software verification and validation was conducted in accordance with Apple's robust quality system and documented to address the recommendations in FDA's "Content of Premarket Submissions for Device Software Functions" guidance document. DPCF was determined to be a Basic Documentation Level. Apple's good software engineering practices, as demonstrated by the 510(k) submission's documentation, supports a conclusion that DPCF was appropriately designed, verified, and validated.

Summary of the Study Proving Device Meets Acceptance Criteria:

The study conducted was Non-Clinical Testing, specifically focusing on Bench Validation Testing and Software Verification and Validation. No clinical testing was performed or submitted.

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

  • Sample Size for Test Set: The document does not explicitly state a sample size for the bench validation testing. It mentions "results" from the testing but doesn't quantify the number of instances or measurements taken.
  • Data Provenance: The document does not specify the country of origin for the data or whether it was retrospective or prospective. It implies the testing was conducted by Apple Inc., an American company, but no further details are given. The nature of "bench validation testing" suggests prospective testing conducted specifically for this submission.

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

  • The document does not mention the use of experts to establish ground truth for the bench validation testing. The ground truth was established by standardized prism tolerance requirements (ISO 8980-1:2017), which are technical and objective metrics, not requiring expert human adjudication in the typical sense for medical imaging AI.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

  • None. As the ground truth was established by objective technical standards (ISO 8980-1:2017), there was no need for human adjudication (e.g., 2+1, 3+1). The testing involved measuring the device's output against these predefined technical tolerances.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was Done:

  • No, an MRMC study was NOT done. The document explicitly states: "No clinical testing data has been submitted." The device is a "software-only" device that modifies digital images based on a user's prism prescription, and its performance was evaluated against technical standards, not by human readers comparing performance with and without AI assistance.

6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) was Done:

  • Yes, in essence. The "Bench Validation Testing" evaluated the DPCF's ability to meet "standardized prism tolerance requirements" as an independent function. While the DPCF operates within the Apple Vision Pro, the testing focused on the device's algorithmic output (digital image adjustments) against an objective standard, rather than its effect on human performance. The assessment that the "general purpose spatial computing platform... do not adversely affect the DPCF's ability to meet standardized prism tolerances" further supports this standalone assessment of the DPCF's core function.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:

  • The ground truth used was objective technical standards/specifications, specifically the prism tolerance requirements specified in ISO 8980-1:2017. This is a well-established international standard for ophthalmic optics.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

  • The document does not specify a training set sample size. The DPCF is described as software that converts a user's prism prescription into digital image adjustment parameters. This implies a rule-based or calculative approach based on optical principles rather than a machine learning model that would typically require a large training dataset. The "software engineering practices" and "bench validation testing" validate the implementation of these optical principles.

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

  • Not applicable in the typical sense for machine learning training sets. Given the nature of the device (applying prism corrections based on a prescription), the "ground truth" for its function is rooted in established optical principles and formulas for prism correction in optics. The software's "design" (as mentioned in "design controls") would incorporate these principles. The validation then confirms that the software's output aligns with these physical optical truths as defined by ISO standards.

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

Vision Pro in accordance with a user's prism prescription, in the horizontal and/or vertical dimensions. DPCF fulfills the prism part of an eyeglass prescription. When an eyeglass prescription also includes other parts (e.g., sphere, cylinder, ADD), DPCF fulfills the prism part of the prescription, while prescription optical inserts fulfill the other parts of the prescription.

The DPCF achieves its intended use by converting a user's prism prescription into digital image adiustment parameters that are utilized by the spatial computing image system to automatically provide digital image adjustments in horizontal and/or vertical dimensions in accordance with a user's prism prescription. At this time, DPCF supports prism prescriptions up to 7.75 Prism Diopters (PD) in the horizontal and/or vertical dimensions (i.e. base-down, base-in, base-out), per eye.

5. Indications for Use

The Digital Prism Correction Feature (DPCF) is software that is intended to provide digital image adjustments in Apple Vision Pro in accordance with a user's prism prescription.

DPCF is available for users with prism in their eyeglass prescription. When a prescription also includes other parts (e.g., sphere, cylinder, ADD), which can be fulfilled by optical inserts, the DPCF fulfills the prism part of the prescription while using Apple Vision Pro.

DPCF supports prism prescriptions up to 7.75 Prism Diopters (PD) in the horizontal and/or vertical dimensions (i.e., base-up, base-down, base-out), per eve.

6. Comparison with the Predicate Device

The subject and predicate device, as described by the identification (21 CFR 886.1655), are both intended to provide a prismatic effect. The subject device provides a prismatic effect by providing perceived digital image shift in horizontal and/or vertical dimensions in accordance with a user's prescription; the predicate device also provides perceived prismatic effects. Furthermore, the DPCF can be used in conjunction with ophthalmic lenses, consistent with the intended use of the predicate device, for which the classification's identification describes a device that can be applied to lenses. Since both the subject and predicate device (per 21 CFR 886.1655) are intended to provide prismatic effects in accordance with a prism prescription, and can be used in coniunction with spectacle lenses, thev have the same intended use.

While DPCF prismatically adjusts a digital image using software, and the predicate provides a prismatic effect through a plastic sheet adhered to lenses, these technological differences do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness, given that devices that provide prismatic effects are well characterized and have a known history of very low risk. Furthermore, the differences in technological characteristics are addressed through acceptable scientific methods, from which the data demonstrate substantial equivalence.

The subject device has been appropriately verified and validated through non-clinical testing to ensure that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate. A complete comparison of the subject and predicate device can be found in Table 1 below.

Table 1: DPCF Comparison with the Predicate

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

The subject device shares the same intended use and represents the same generic device type as the predicate device, as established by 21 CFR 886.1655. While there are differences of technological characteristics, these differences do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. Data from acceptable methods have been provided in this 510(k) submission. including results from bench validation testing, to substantiate the intended use of the subject device and demonstrate the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. The differences between the subject and predicate device do not present any new issues of safety or effectiveness as they do not increase the risk of the device, and can be appropriately verified and validated through existing methods. Thus, the DPCF is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, ophthalmic Fresnel prism (21 CFR 886,1655).

7. Summary of Non-Clinical Testing

Non-clinical Testing Summary

Apple conducted non-clinical testing on DPCF with passing results, supporting a determination of substantial equivalence. Non-clinical testing conducted included the following:

Software Verification and Validation

Software verification and validation was conducted in accordance with Apple's robust quality system and documented to address the recommendations in FDA's "Content of Premarket Submissions for Device Software Functions" quidance document. DPCF was determined to be a Basic Documentation Level. Apple's good software engineering practices, as demonstrated by the 510(k) submission's documentation, supports a conclusion that DPCF was appropriately designed, verified, and validated.

Bench Validation Testing

The bench validation testing demonstrated that the DPCF provides prismatic adjustments in accordance with a prism prescription. Specifically, the results validate that the digital image adiustments provided by DPCF meet the prism tolerance requirements specified in ISO 8980-1:2017, and demonstrates that the DPCF provides reliable and acceptable prism adjustments for the available prism adjustment range, including for both virtual and digital passthrough content. Furthermore, the results demonstrate that the DPCF performs as intended with and without optical inserts, and that the general purpose spatial computing platform (i.e., Apple Vision Pro) and it's "other functions" do not adversely affect the DPCF's ability to meet standardized prism tolerances.

General Purpose Spatial Computing Platform Assessment

DPCF is a software-only device, available on compatible general purpose spatial computing platforms (i.e., Apple Vision Pro); therefore, medical device hardware testing is not applicable. However, as a multiple function device product, the impact of the general purpose spatial computing platform on DPCF was assessed as part of the feature's risk management, verification, and validation activities, and determined to be acceptable.

8. Summary of Clinical Testing

No clinical testing data has been submitted.

{8}------------------------------------------------

9. Conclusion

The Digital Prism Correction Feature is substantially equivalent to the predicate device as they share the same intended use and where there are differences in technological characteristics, these differences do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. Furthermore, the scientific methods used for evaluating the different technological characteristics of the subject device are acceptable and the results of that testing supports a decision of substantial equivalence.
