No
The 510(k) summary describes a contact lens case for disinfection and storage, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The performance studies listed are standard toxicology tests for material safety.

No.
The device is indicated for chemical disinfection and storage of contact lenses, which does not constitute a therapeutic function.

No
Explanation: The device is a contact lens case used for disinfection and storage, not for diagnosing any medical condition.

No

The device is described as a "Contact Lens Case," which is a physical hardware product used for storing and disinfecting contact lenses. The summary details toxicology testing relevant to a physical material in contact with the eye, not software performance.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the chemical disinfection and storage of contact lenses. This is a physical process applied to a medical device (contact lenses), not a test performed on a biological sample from a human body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The device is a contact lens case, which is a container for storing and treating contact lenses.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies listed are toxicology tests, which assess the safety of the materials in contact with the eye and the disinfection process, not the diagnostic accuracy of a test.

IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. The Paragon Contact Lens Case does not fit this description.

Dear Dr. Meyers:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System -Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
