The device description focuses on mechanical components, motor control, and vacuum systems. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.
Yes
The device is intended to shave a partial lamella section of the cornea, which is a therapeutic intervention for a medical condition or to improve bodily function.
No
The device description and intended use clearly state that the UltraShaper™ System is an AC-powered device intended to shave a partial lamella section of the cornea, which is a surgical or therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including a cutting head, suction rings, motor handpiece, cables, tubing, blade assembly, and a console power/suction supply. It describes the physical interaction and mechanical operation of these components.
Based on the provided information, the UltraShaper™ System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "shave a partial lamella section of the cornea." This is a surgical procedure performed directly on a living patient's tissue.
- Device Description: The description details a mechanical system for cutting and manipulating corneal tissue during surgery. It involves components like cutting heads, suction rings, motors, and power supplies.
- Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to diagnose a condition, monitor treatment, or screen for diseases.
- Anatomical Site: The device operates on the cornea, which is part of the living eye.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies mentioned refer to clinical results in terms of postoperative refraction and visual acuity, which are outcomes of a surgical procedure, not diagnostic test results.
IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body for the purpose of providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The UltraShaper™ System is clearly an in vivo surgical device.

Device Description
The UltraShaper™ System consists of the following components: (a) cutting head, (b) suction rings / handles, (c) motor handpiece, (d) handpiece-to-console cable, (e) suction tubing set, (g) blade assembly, and (h) console power / suction supply with foot actuated switches.
The cutting head and suction rings / handles are constructed entirely from stainless steel. The UltraShaper™ System is designed to perform anterior lamellar circular corneal resections of a predetermined diameter and thickness based upon the principle of a carpenter's plane. A cutting blade emerges from the center of the keratome plane. The stainless steel blade oscillates by a small DC motor (in the motor handpiece) controlled by foot switch. The cutting head slides on dovetail guides on a circular suction ring. The cutting head contains a gear drive train that engages a gear rack on one side of the suction ring to drive the keratome head across the suction ring and cornea. The suction ring provides an annular vacuum chamber for temporary attachment to the ocular globe. The cutting head has a fixed foot plate and is available in three standard head sizes, 130, 160 and 180 microns, depending on the thickness of the corneal section desired. There are also three different suction ring / handle sizes available to accommodate the variations in corneal curvature from patient to patient. A (motor handpiece-to-console) cable is also supplied with each UltraShaper™ keratome.
The UltraShaper™ Console Power Supply provides the power to both the keratome motor and the suction supply for holding the ring in place on the cornea. This is the same console which drives the company's ADK disposable keratome. The console has three vacuum suction settings, HIGH, LOW, OFF. The console will only permit the keratome to operate (transverse the cutting plane) while in the HIGH setting. While in the HIGH mode, the console, with its internal barometer, reacts to vacuum suctions values which are below the optimum by signaling the operator with audible and visual warnings. The UltraShaper™ Console Power Supply conforms to IEC-601-1 electrical safety standard.
A sterile suction tubing set, which is generic to several keratome systems, is used to connect the suction ring / handle of the UltraShaper™ to the suction port on the console. Suction tubing sets are supplied sterile and are intended for single use. Likewise, keratome blades are supplied sterile and are intended for single use.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The techniques and instrumentation for lamellar keratoplasty were introduced 45 years ago. Keratomes have been in use for nearly 30 years, beginning with the introduction into commercial distribution of the Steinway/Barraquer In Situ Microkeratome Set in 1965. A review of the published literature on keratomes indicates that these devices are associated with acceptable clinical results in terms of postoperative refraction and visual acuity, and minimal postoperative complications.

ડ. Intended Use for Subject Device:
The Automated Disposable Keratome is an AC-powered device that is intended to shave a partial lamellar section of the cornea.
Comparison of Technological Characteristics with Predicate Devices: 6.
The UltraShaper™ Keratome operates on the same principles and has the same technological characteristics as other legally marketed keratomes. However, the UltraShaper™ is most similar to the Chiron Automated Corneal Shaper™ (ACS). The UltraShaper™ shares the same primary drive mechanism as the Chiron ACS. Historically, the DC-powered gear drive mechanism, which automatically draws the blade across dovetail guides, has proven itself safe and effective in producing precise sections of corneal tissue.
The motor handpiece for the UltraShaper™ device uses the same DC motor in the Chiron ACS™. The connect point between the UltraShaper™ motor handpiece is similar to the ACS™ system. The UltraShaper™ motor handpiece, like the ACS™ motor handpiece, is disinfected by cleaning with alcohol. Refer to TABLE 1 for a comparison of features for substantially equivalent devices.

The differences between the UltraShaper™ and currently marketed devices, particularly the Chiron ACS device, are insignificant and do not affect the safety and effectiveness of the device since they do not alter the energy source, materials or principle of operation.
Discussion of Clinical Tests: 7.
The techniques and instrumentation for lamellar keratoplasty were introduced 45 years ago. Keratomes have been in use for nearly 30 years, beginning with the introduction into commercial distribution of the Steinway/Barraquer In Situ Microkeratome Set in 1965.

Dear Mr. Mirza:
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 .
