Intended Use
The EAS-1000 "Anterior Eye-Segment Analysis System" is intended to take photographs of the eye and surrounding area, for non-invasive illumination, magnification, observation, analysis and photography of the anterior segments of the eye, which include the cornea, aqueous, lens, vitreous and retina of the eye. To evaluate and analyze conditions of lens (opaque crystalline lens), lens position (pre and post Intraocular Lens Transplant), anterior or posterior cortical opacity, cataracts (nuclear, subcapsular and or cortical) using cross slit imaging or retro-illumination, or both with densitometry and biometry analyses where applicable.
Device Description
This DEVICE is a non-invasive, table mounted, AC powered diagnostic sytem intended to take photographs of the eye and surrounding area. The system contains a illumination device, viewing optics, a computer (CPU), image capturing devices, and is based on the Scheimpflug Principle for Slit Image photography. The system uses a Xenon flash lamp for Flash Photography, and an Infrared LED for Retro-Illumination.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or related terms, and the device description focuses on traditional optical and imaging principles.

No
The device is described as a "diagnostic system" intended for "observation, analysis and photography" of the eye, which indicates its purpose is to identify or characterize conditions rather than to treat them.

Yes

The "Device Description" explicitly states, "This DEVICE is a non-invasive, table mounted, AC powered diagnostic sytem intended to take photographs of the eye and surrounding area." The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section further details its use for "observation, analysis and photography of the anterior segments of the eye" to "evaluate and analyze conditions."

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "non-invasive, table mounted, AC powered diagnostic system" containing hardware components such as an illumination device, viewing optics, a computer (CPU), image capturing devices, a Xenon flash lamp, and an Infrared LED. This indicates it is a hardware system with integrated software, not a software-only device.

Based on the provided information, 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 EAS-1000 is described as a system that takes photographs of the eye and surrounding area for non-invasive observation, analysis, and photography of the anterior segments of the eye. It uses light and imaging techniques to evaluate the eye's structure and conditions.
  • No Sample Analysis: The description does not mention the analysis of any biological samples taken from the patient. The device directly interacts with the eye using light and imaging.

Therefore, the EAS-1000 falls under the category of an ophthalmic diagnostic device that performs in-vivo (within the living body) imaging and analysis, rather than in-vitro (outside the living body) diagnostic testing.

VI CLINICAL PERFORMANCE DATA

Published Journal Articles were supplied to support the claims for use, accuracy, safety and effectiveness of the EAS-1000 for the prescribed intended uses defined in this submission.

VII NON-CLINICAL PERFORMANCE DATA

None provided at this time.

VIII RATIONAL FOR SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

The GENERAL INTENDED USES of all three of these devices is "to take photographs of the eye and surrounding area".

Our claim of Substantial Equivalence, and is also based on the following;

  • The devices compared, utilize the same or similar OPERATING PRINCIPLES, in . that they all contain an optical system, a source of illumination for observation, a source of illumination for photography, and photographic mediums.
  • All three devices utilize the same DEVICE FEATURES, a Head Stabilizing device, . an External Fixation Target, a Joy Stick or Control Mechanism, and a Exposure Control.
  • All three devices utilize a ILLUMINATION SOURCE, and a FLASH OUTPUT ● SOURCE, and safety concerns regarding "Photo Toxicity" is not an issue with these devices.
  • All three devices are considered "Non Invasive" devices as defined in 21 CFR . §812.3(k) and are considered NOT to be a "Significant Risk Device" as defined in 21 CFR §812.3(m).

IX SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS

The EAS-1000 is a non-invasive diagnostic system and only contacts the patient on his/her chin and forehead, and DOES NOT present or pose any new or additional significant effects or risks on the safety, performance, use or effectiveness for its prescribed intended uses. Light safety concerns or "Photo Toxicity" is not an issue with this device as light output is of an eyesafe intensity and wavelength. Electrical Safety requirements for medical device are met. The device is proven effective for its intended uses through internal company and independent international clinical studies. The information provided in this submission reasonably assures this product to be Safe and Effective for it intended uses.

CONCLUSION ×

We believe that the data submitted in this document, demonstrates that the EAS-1000 is substantially equivalent with respect to the indications for use, operating principles, and the device features to other legally market predicate devices. The safety and effectiveness of this product can be reasonably assured, as the EAS-1000 DOES NOT pose any new or additional significant effects on the safety, performance, use or effectiveness of this device for its prescribed intended uses. We believe that this device clearly meets the requirement for substantial equivalence according to the 510(k) guidelines. Therefore, justifying 510(k) PreMarket Notification Clearance for commercial sale and distribution of this product within the United States.
