The summary describes a standard soft contact lens and its physical properties. There is no mention of any computational or analytical features that would suggest the use of AI or ML.
No
Correction of visual acuity, as indicated in the "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section, is not considered a therapeutic function; it is a corrective measure.
No
This device is a contact lens, which is used for the correction of visual acuity (a therapeutic/corrective function), not for diagnosing a condition.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical contact lens made from a specific material (hioxifilcon A) with physical properties, indicating it is a hardware device, not software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that the CANTOR & SILVER 5X contact lenses are used for the correction of visual acuity by being placed directly on the eye. This is a physical device used for optical correction, not a test performed on a sample outside the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to correct vision in individuals with myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. This is a therapeutic/corrective function, not a diagnostic one.
Therefore, the CANTOR & SILVER 5X contact lenses fall under the category of medical devices, but not specifically In Vitro Diagnostic devices.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The CANTOR & SILVER 5X (hioxifilcon A) Spherical Soft Contact Lenses for daily wear are indicated for the correction of visual acuity in aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes with myopia or hyperopia. The lens may be worn by persons who exhibit refractive astigmatism of 1.50 diopters or less where the astigmatism does not interfere with visual acuity.
The CANTOR & SILVER 5X (hioxifilcon A) Toric Soft Contact Lenses for daily wear are indicated for the correction of visual acuity in aphakic and not aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes with myopia or hyperopia and/or possesses refractive astigmatism up to 10.00 diopters. All CANTOR & SILVER 5X lenses will be offered as conventional soft contact lenses, as well as planned replacement soft contact lenses.

Device Description
The CANTOR & SILVER 5X (hioxifilcon A) Soft (Spherical & Toric) Daily Wear Contact lenses are fabricated from hioxifilcon A, which in the dry (unhydrated) state may be machined. The hydrophilic nature of this material allows the lens to become soft and pliable when immersed in an aqueous solution.
In the hydrated state, the lens conforms to the curvature of the eye covering the cornea and extending slightly beyond the limbus forming a colorless, transparent optical surface. The (hioxifilcon A) soft hydrophilic contact lens has a spherical back surface. The hydrophilic properties of the lens require that it be maintained in a fully hydrated state in a solution compatible with the eye. If the lens dries out, it will become hard and appear somewhat warped; however, it will return to its proper configuration when completely rehydrated in the proper storage solution.
The hydrophilic characteristics allow aqueous solutions to enter the lens and in its fully hydrated state the lens is approximately 58% water by weight. The physical properties of the lens are:
Refractive Index: 1.515 (dry) 1.404 (hydrated)
Light Transmission (clear): greater than 95% T
Light Transmission (tinted): greater than 95% T
Color Pigment Name: Phthalocyanato (2) - (copper)
Water Content: 58% ± 2%
Specific Gravity: 1.308 (dry) 1.136 (hydrated)
Oxygen Permeability: 20 X 10 to the power of -11 (cm²/sec) (ml O₂/ml x mm Hg @ 35°C), (revised Fatt method)

§ 886.5925 Soft (hydrophilic) contact lens.
(a)
Identification. A soft (hydrophilic) contact lens is a device intended to be worn directly against the cornea and adjacent limbal and scleral areas of the eye to correct vision conditions or act as a therapeutic bandage. The device is made of various polymer materials the main polymer molecules of which absorb or attract a certain volume (percentage) of water.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II if the device is intended for daily wear only.(2) Class III if the device is intended for extended wear.
(c)
Date PMA or notice of completion of a PDP is required. As of May 28, 1976, an approval under section 515 of the act is required before a device described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section may be commercially distributed. See § 886.3.

Substantial Equivalence:
The device will be manufactured according to specified process controls and a Quality Management System certified to ISO 9002 and EN46002 by the National Accreditation of Certification Bodies. The System vehicle to 100 900 manufacturing, packaging and sterilization procedures similar to devices currently marketed and distributed by Cantor & Silver Limited in the UK. The established safety profile (preclinical toxicology and manufacturing/chemistry data) of the device is equivalent to the BENZ-G 5X (hioxifilcon A), 510(k) #K952620. Being similar with respect to indications for use, materials, physical construction and safety & effectiveness to the predicate devices, this meets the requirements per section 510(k) of the act regarding substantial equivalence and does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness than the predicate devices identified above.
