The summary explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and provides no other indication of AI/ML use.

No
The device is used for examination and diagnosis, not for treatment.

Yes
The intended use explicitly states the device "is used to aid in the diagnosis of diseases or trauma which affect the structural properties of the anterior eye segment."

No

The device description explicitly states "AC-powered slitlamp biomicroscope," which is a hardware 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 description clearly states the device is a "slitlamp biomicroscope" used for "eye examination of the anterior eye segment." This is a direct examination of the patient's eye, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "aid in the diagnosis of diseases or trauma which affect the structural properties of the anterior eye segment" through visual examination.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device used for direct patient examination, not an in vitro diagnostic.

Re: K992836 Trade Name: Slit Lamp Regulatory Class: II Product Code: 86 HJO Dated: October 6, 1999 Received: October 13, 1999

Dear Mr. Miner:

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 .
