Intended Use
Tetrafilcon A lenses are intended for use as a daily wear lens for the correction of refractive ametropia (myopic, hyperopic and astigmatism) in not-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes. The Preference® standard, CooperHT™, CooperHT™, CV 43™, Vantage® and Vantage® Accents (tetrafilcon A) Hydrophilic Contact Lenses are indicated for daily wear for the correction of visual acuity by not-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes that are myopic or hyperopic. The lenses can be worn by persons who exhibit astigmatism of 2.50 diopters or less that does not interfere with visual acuity. The PreferenceToric™ and Cooper Toric™ hydrophilic contact lenses are indicated for daily wear use by not-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes that are myopic or hyperopic, who exhibit astigmatism up to 9.00 diopters and can obtain satisfactory visual acuity, in a spherical range of -20.00 to +12.00.
Device Description
All tetrafilcon A Soft (hydrophilic Contact Lenses are hemispherical shells and are available as a spherical or astigmatic lens. When place on the cornea, the hydrated lens acts as a refracting medium to focus light rays on the retina. The lens material is a hydrophilic random terpolymer of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, N-vinylpyrrolidone and methylmethacrylate joined in a three dimensional network of terpolymer chains by divinylbenzene cross links. When produced with a handling tint, the dye C.I. Reactive Blue 163 is chemically bound to the polymer to impart a light blue tint on the lens. The handling tint increases the visibility of the lens when not worn on the eye.

No.
The device acts as a refracting medium to correct refractive errors (myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism) and improve visual acuity, rather than treating or curing a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device is a contact lens intended for correcting refractive errors (myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism), not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical contact lens made of a specific polymer material, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the lenses are for the "correction of refractive ametropia" and "correction of visual acuity." This is a therapeutic or corrective function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description explains how the lens acts as a "refracting medium to focus light rays on the retina." This further reinforces its role in correcting vision, not diagnosing a condition.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) or to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition based on such analysis.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the body to provide diagnostic information. This contact lens is applied to the body to correct a physical condition (refractive error).

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Non-Clinical Tests:
Physical and chemical testing was performed on the lenses made by Aspect using an in-monomer tint as called for in the May 1994 Premarket Notification (510(k) Guidance Document for Daily Wear Contact Lenses. Water content, light transmittance, refractive index and mechanical properties were tested. Toxicity was determined by Cytotoxicity, Ocular Irritation Study and Acute Systemic Study.

Conclusion:
The determination of substantial equivalence is based in the results if non-clinical testing. Review of all test data demonstrates that tetrafilcon A lenses manufactured at Aspect Vision, Ltd. with an in-monomer tint, are equivalent to the predicated post-hydration tinted lenses. The in-monomer tinted lenses have the same design, indication and directions for use. CooperVision, Inc. concludes, therefore, that the in-monomer tinted lenses are substantially equivalent to the post-hydration tinted lenses.

§ 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.
