The device description and performance studies focus on the chemical composition and cleaning efficacy of a contact lens cleaner, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No.
The device is indicated for cleaning contact lenses, not for treating a disease or condition. Its function is to maintain cleanliness of contact lenses for hygiene and proper function.
No
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that the device is "indicated for use to clean fluoro silicone and silicone acrylate rigid gas permeable contact lenses". Its function is cleaning, not diagnosing.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "sterile, concentrated, homogeneous surfactant solution containing alky ether sulfate, ether sulfate, ethoxylated alkyl phenol, triquaternary cocoabased phospholipid, silica gel as cleaning agents; with titanium dioxide," which are chemical components, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to clean contact lenses. This is a cleaning and maintenance product for a medical device (contact lenses), not a product used to perform tests on biological samples from the human body to diagnose or monitor a medical condition.
- Device Description: The description lists cleaning agents. These are chemicals designed to remove debris from a surface, not reagents or components used in a diagnostic test.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
IVDs are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or screening purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The modified Boston Advance ® Cleaner is indicated for use to clean fluoro silicone and silicone acrylate rigid gas permeable contact lenses after each removal and before conditioning (wetting, soaking, and disinfecting).

8. STATEMENT OF EQUIVALENCE:
Boston Advance® Cleaner is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed Boston Advance® Cleaner, approved on May 3, 1990 under PMA, and Boston® Cleaner. The device has the same basic technological characteristics as the predicate devices relative to design, packaging and composition.
DESCRIPTION OF SAFETY AND SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE: 9.
A series of in-vitro and in-vivo preclinical, toxicological, and microbiological studies were performed to assess the safety and effectiveness of Boston Advance @ Cleaner. Testing was carried out in accordance with Premarket Notification (510 (k)) Guidance Document for Contact Lens Care Products, May 1, 1997, and the Draft Premarket Notification (510(k)) Guidance Document for Contact Lens Care Products, April 1, 1996. A description of those tests can be found below.
Toxicology:
In vitro biological reactivity (Agar Diffusion, USP 23, 1995, Chapter 87, 1698) tests were conducted using Boston IV (silicone acrylate) and Boston ES (fluoro silicone acrylate) Rigid Gas Permeable Contact Lenses treated with a lens care regimen employing BOSTON ADVANCE Comfort Formula Conditioning Solution in conjunction with Boston Advance® Cleaner.
The results of these tests demonstrate that the product is not toxic.
Microbiology:
Sterility:
Studies carried out in accordance with USP 23, 1995, Chapter 95, 1689, were performed to demonstrate the sterility of Boston Advance® Cleaner.
The antimicrobial activity of Boston Advance ® Cleaner was determined using a combination of two test methods. The Bacteriostasis Test Method and the Preservative Efficacy Test Method for Multi-Dose Preserved Contact Lens Care Products. Both methods are described in the Premarket Notification (510(k)) Guidance Document for Contact Lens Care Products, May 1 1997.
Biostatic Efficacy:
At the zero time point, separate samples of three lots of Boston® Liguid Enzyme Cleaner were each inoculated with one of the five USP-designated microorganisms to a final concentration of approximately 1x10 cfu/ml. Test samples were assayed at 7 and 14 days after inoculation to determine the concentrations of surviving microorganisms. Test samples were continually assayed every 7 days through 42 days after initial challenge, and were assayed every 2-3 weeks thereafter, up to at least 98 days.
2
Preservative Efficacy:
After six months of storage at defined temperatures and humidity conditions samples from three lots were tested using the Preservative Efficacy of Multi-Dose Preserved Contact Lens Care Products method. Results demonstrate that the modified Boston Advance® Cleaner meets the requirements for multi-dose preserved contact lens care products.
The results from these tests support that the product has acceptable antimicrobial activity.
Shelf Life:
Expiration dating was established based on the Shelf-life Protocol testing in accord with the Premarket Notification (510 (k)) Guidance Document for Contact Lens Care Products, May 1, 1997, and the Draft Premarket Notification (510(k)) Guidance Document for Contact Lens Care Products. April 1, 1996.
Lens/Solution Compatibility:
The compatibility of Boston Advance @ Cleaner with silicone acrylate and fluoro silicone acrylate rigid gas permeable contact lenses was determined using a test procedure that is based on the Solution Compatibility Test Protocol found in the Premarket Notification (510 (k)) Guidance Document for Contact Lens Care Products, May 1, 1997, and the Draft Premarket Notification (510(k)) Guidance Document for Contact Lens Care Products, April 1, 1996.
The results of these tests demonstrate the compatibility of the proposed regimens with silicone acrylate and fluoro silicone acrylate rigid gas permeable contact lenses.
In-Vitro Cleaning:
The critical micelle concentrations (CMC) of the three surfactants used in the formulation were evaluated. This test is described in Premarket Notification (510 (k)) Guidance Document for Contact Lens Care Products, May 1, 1997. The critical micelle concentrations were calculated using the data collected. The concentration of each of the surfactants was found to be above the critical micelle concentration for each of the surfactants.
The results of these tests demonstrate that the cleaning efficacy of the product is equivalent to the predicate device.
10. _CLINICAL:
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that the investigational daily cleaner, the modified Boston Advance® Cleaner (test), is substantially equivalent in safety and efficacy when compared to the currently marketed Boston Advance® Cleaner (control), which was approved in May 3,1990 under PMA P890054, when used with currently marketed rigid gas permeable (RGP) contact lens materials on a daily wear basis. these lens materials include silicone acrylate and fluoro-silicone acrylate materials. The study started in April 1997,

concluded in November 1997, and was carried out in accordance with the Premarket Notification (510(k)) Guidance Document for Contact Lens Care Products, May 1, 1997.
The study involved 12 investigational sites and 170 patients (340 eyes) for a period of three months. 114 patients (228 eyes) used modified Boston Advance® Cleaner, and 54 patients (108 eyes) used marketed Boston Advance® Cleaner.
Of the 168 subjects entered into the study, 151 completed the study. Seventeen subjects were discontinued from the study. None of the 17 discontinued patients, Test or Control, were discontinued for safety of efficacy reasons. Subjects recruited into the study ranged in age from 18 - 60 years of age with a mean age of 37.5. There were 132 females and 38 males.
Conclusion
Based on these data, the it is concluded that the modified Boston Advance @ Cleaner (Test), is substantially equivalent in safety and efficacy to the currently marketed Boston Advance® Cleaner (Control).
11. CONCLUSION:
The results from all non-clinical and clinical studies demonstrate that the Boston Advance® Cleaner is safe, effective, and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
