No
The device description focuses on mechanical components and controls (motor, blade, suction, gauges, footswitch) and does not mention any computational or algorithmic features indicative of AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Mentions image processing" sections are explicitly marked as "Not Found".
Yes
The device is used to produce a corneal flap, which is a surgical alteration of the body, indicating a therapeutic purpose.
No
The device is a surgical keratome system designed to create a corneal flap, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function. It is used to prepare the eye for other procedures, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description explicitly details hardware components such as a motor, surgical blade, battery, power unit, footswitch controls, and analog gauges.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "produce a corneal flap." This is a surgical procedure performed directly on a patient's eye.
- Device Description: The device is a surgical instrument (a keratome) used for cutting tissue.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue samples) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such analysis of specimens.
This device is a surgical instrument used for a specific procedure on a living patient.

Device Description
The model K-1000 keratome features a high speed, low torque nitrogen driven motor, which drives a reciprocating surgical blade will be a single-use, disposable device that will be filed under a separate 510k. The keratome head is preset to produce a corneal resection approximately 160 microns in depth with the corresponding blade insertion and flap diameter of approximately 10.0mm.
The model K-1000 keratome system is battery operated and may also operate from its charger. The power unit provides on/off footswitch controls for the keratome head and drive assembly, and suction to the suction ring. Analog gauges located on the front panel of the unit indicate nitrogen pressure and suction level supplying the appropriate connectors.
