The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "This device will be used in the same manner as all ophthalmic diagnostic devices used to obtain ocular measurements."

No
The device description explicitly details hardware components and measurement principles involving physical interactions with the eye (partial coherence interferometry, keratometry with LEDs, slit lamp illumination, CCD-camera). It is a system that includes both hardware and software for data acquisition and processing.
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 IOLMaster is a non-invasive device that takes physical measurements of the eye (axial length, anterior chamber depth, corneal radius) using light and optical principles. It does not analyze biological samples from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to obtain ocular measurements and perform calculations to determine appropriate IOL power for implantation. This is a diagnostic process related to the physical structure of the eye, not the analysis of biological samples.
The device is clearly an ophthalmic diagnostic device used for in-vivo measurements of the eye's physical characteristics.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
This device will be used in the same manner as all ophthalmic diagnostic devices used to obtain ocular measurements (for axial length, anterior chamber depth and corneal radius), and perform calculations to allow physicians to determine appropriate IOL power and type for implantation.

Device Description
The IOLMaster is a non-invasive, non-contact system for measuring the parameters of the human eye required to determine the appropriate power of IOL for implantation, (axial eye length, anterior chamber depth, and corneal radius), and for calculating the optimal power of IOL.
Axial eye length is measured using the principle of partial coherence interferometry (also referred to as laser Doppler interferometry), with a Michelson interferometer.
Corneal radius is measured using traditional keratometery principles. whereby light from LEDs is projected on the cornea of the eve, and after image capturing of the reflected marks and image processing provides the measurement.
Anterior chamber depth is measured by slit lamp illumination. The slit light is scattered by the cornea and the eye lens, generating an image of the cornea and the lens. The image is captured by a CCD-camera. Image processing and edge detection algorithms allow for calculation of the distance between the anterior surface of cornea and lens ( == anterior chamber depth).
These three measurements provide the physician with the data required to calculate the power of IOL to use for a patient. The physician can then choose from one of up to five internationally accepted formulas, built into the IOLMaster, to perform the calculation. The IOL power is then calculated according to the IOL type.
Users can also enter information regarding the different IOL types into the IOLMaster database, which can then be used to suggest the optimal IOL. This calculation and selection process is already performed by ultrasound and other diagnostic devices. However, the choice of formula and final determination of the appropriate IOL is at the physicians' discretion.
The other concerns for safety are the light output and electrical safety. The device design assures that the light outputs are of an eyesafe intensity and wavelength, in compliance with both national and international safety standards. The device is designed to comply with both national and international electrical safety standards.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol
The IOLMaster-prototype, as per the second stage validation and verification program, was tested in February 1999 at the University Eye Clinic, Wuerzburg, Germany. The prototype tested was equivalent in its optical, electronic and mechanical design to the production model IOLMaster, with functions for Axial Length, Corneal Radius and Anterior Chamber Depth. Software was modified to improve user convenience.
The testing served as part of the second stage validation and verification program for the IOLMaster, and followed first stage testing of 678 human eyes where it was compared against the Grieshaber Biometry System ("GBS"), a high-accuracy ultrasound biometry unit, in immersion technique, as well as the TOMEY "AL-1000" A-scan device and the ALCON "Ocuscan" keratometer.
An additional 155 human eyes were measured with the IOLMaster. The GBS, AL-1000 and the OcuScan were used as comparative devices.

- న్. This device will be used in the same manner as all ophthalmic diagnostic devices used to obtain measurements and perform calculations for physicians to determine IOL power and type selections for a patient.
- The IOLMaster and the predicate devices are substantially equivalent 6. because they use similar technology and perform similar functions, to provide the ocular measurements and to perform calculations needed to allow a physician to chose the appropriate power and type of IOL for a patient.
The IOLMaster and the Humphrey Systems OCT (K961171) both use Michelson, partial coherence interferometry to obtain data regarding the eye. Both devices use a CCD Camera to capture the information. The IOLMaster enhances the imaging functions of the OCT with additional processing capabilities, allowing for the axial length measurement. The safety and efficacy of Michelson interferometry is well established.
The axial length measurement obtained through Michelson interferometry is equivalent to the information that would be obtained using a standard ultrasound scan. such as the Ouantel Medical B Scan 'S' (K926251). Unlike the ultrasound device, the IOLMaster does not require contact with the eye to perform this measurement. Because there is no contact, patient safety and comfort are enhanced, as there is a reduced risk of infection and no need for local anesthetization.
The IOLMaster and the B-Scan 'S' are also similar in that both devices allow the physician to calculate the power of IOL using industry standard formulas incorporated into the processors of the devices. Both devices can also use the calculated measurements to suggest types of IOLs.
The IOLMaster is similar to the Zeiss SL 120 slit lamp / biomicroscope (K 925641) because both use traditional slit lamp principles to obtain anterior chamber depth measurements. The eye is illuminated through a slit using LED's under a fixed angle from the side. Light scattered by the cornea and lens generates a slit image. In the SL 120, an anterior chamber depth accessory and eyepiece present that information against a scale. The information from the scale is interpreted through a chart and the anterior chamber depth is determined. In the IOLMaster, the slit image is projected onto a CCD-camera and using image processing, the anterior chamber depth can be calculated. It should also be noted that anterior

chamber depth measurement can also be obtained using the ultrasound predicate device.
The IOLMaster and the Humpbrey 420 auto-keratometer (K781994) both obtain corneal radius measurement using traditional keratometry techniques. The principle radius of corneal curvature is determined by shining collimated beams of light, generated by LEDs, onto the cornea and analyzing the position of the reflections using electronic image processing. Both products also allow the physician to use the measurements to calculate IOL power. However, the Humphrey 420 required the use of an ultrasound device to perform this calculation, whereas the IOLMaster performs this function independently.
The basic functionality and indications of the IOLMaster and the predicate devices are virtually identical. The IOLMaster and the predicate devices use similar technologies, functional features and indications. These devices present the same questions of safety and effectiveness. Any differences between the IOLMaster and the predicate devices do not affect the safety or effectiveness of the device.
