Intended Use
The ACUVUE Contact Lens (spherical) is indicated for daily wear for the correction of refractive ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) in aphakic or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes who may have 1.00 D or less of astigmatism. The ACUVUE BIFOCAL Contact Lens is indicated for daily wear for the correction of distance and near vision in presbyopic, aphakic or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes who may have 0.75 D or less of astigmatism. The ACUVUE TORIC Contact Lens is indicated for daily wear for the correction of visual acuity in aphakic or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes that are hyperopic or myopic and may have 10.00 D or less of astigmatism. The ACUVUE TORIC BIFOCAL Contact Lens is indicated for daily wear for the correction of distance and near vision in presbyopic aphakic or non-phakic persons with non-diseased eyes who may have 10.00 D of astigmatism or less. ACUVUE Contact Lenses help protect against transmission of harmful UV radiation to the cornea and into the eye. Eye care practitioners may prescribe the lens for either single-use disposable wear or for frequent/planned replacement wear, with cleaning, disinfection and scheduled replacement. When prescribed for frequent/planned replacement wear, the lens may be disinfected using a chemical disinfection system only.
Device Description
The device description does not change from that cleared under K991134.
More Information

No
The document describes contact lenses and their intended use, with no mention of AI or ML technology in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

No
The device is indicated for correcting refractive errors (myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, presbyopia) for vision correction, and for protection against UV radiation, none of which are considered therapeutic treatments for disease.

No

Explanation: The ACUVUE Contact Lens is described as a device for the correction of refractive ametropia and presbyopia, indicating it is a corrective, not a diagnostic, device. Its intended use is to improve vision, not to detect or monitor disease.

No

The device description and intended use clearly describe contact lenses, which are physical medical devices, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the ACUVUE Contact Lenses are for the correction of refractive ametropia (myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism) and presbyopia. This is a therapeutic or corrective function, not a diagnostic one.
  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. Contact lenses do not perform this type of analysis.
  • Device Description and Performance Studies: The description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and clinical safety of the contact lenses for vision correction, not on any diagnostic capabilities.

Therefore, the ACUVUE Contact Lens, as described, is a medical device for vision correction, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The ACUVUE Contact Lens (spherical) is indicated for daily wear for the correction of refractive ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) in aphakic or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eves who may have 1.00 D or less of astigmatism.

The ACUVUE BIFOCAL Contact Lens is indicated for daily wear for the correction of distance and near vision in presbyopic, aphakic or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes who may have 0.75 D or less of astigmatism.

The ACUVUE TORIC Contact Lens is indicated for daily wear for the correction of visual acuity in aphakic or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes that are hyperopic or myopic and may have 10.00 D or less of astigmatism.

The ACUVUE TORIC BIFOCAL Contact Lens is indicated for daily wear for the correction of distance and near vision in presbyopic aphakic or non-phakic persons with non-diseased eyes who may have 10.00 D of astigmatism or less.

ACUVUE Contact Lenses help protect against transmission of harmful UV radiation to the cornea and into the eye.

Eye care practitioners may prescribe the lens for either single-use disposable wear or for frequent/planned replacement wear, with cleaning, disinfection and scheduled replacement. When prescribed for frequent/planned replacement wear, the lens may be disinfected using a chemical disinfection system only.

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

This 510(k) describes a labeling modification which is supported by clinical studies published in the July 1999 CLAO Journal (see Attachment A). There is no change in lens material, the manufacturing process, nor the parameters and properties, therefore, the clinical data previously submitted in K991134 supports the clinical safety of the subject device.

Additional studies were not conducted, therefore, the conclusions drawn from studies previously submitted in K991134 support the non-clinical and clinical safety of the subject device. The clinical studies published in the July 1999 CLAO Journal support the labeling modification that is the subject of this 510(k).

§ 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.

| Reason for
510(k) | The reason for the 510(k) is to revise the "Wear Schedule" in the Draft
Package Insert, and the "Introduction" statements in the Draft Patient
Instruction Guides (Disposable and Frequent Replacement) for ACUVUE
(etafilcon A) soft (hydrophilic) contact lenses, clear and visibility tinted, with
UV blocker, for daily wear to include the following statement:
When ACUVUE UV Blocking Contact Lenses are replaced at intervals
ranging from 1 day to 2 weeks, the risk of developing giant papillary
conjunctivitis may be reduced . |

| Characteristics | The characteristics do not change. They are the same as previously submitted
in K991134. |
| Non-clinical
studies | Non-clinical studies (chemistry, toxicology, microbiology, shelf-life, and
leachability) on the lens material were not conducted because the lens
material, etafilcon A, does not change. |
| Clinical studies | This 510(k) describes a labeling modification which is supported by clinical
studies published in the July 1999 CLAO Journal (see Attachment A). There
is no change in lens material, the manufacturing process, nor the parameters
and properties, therefore, the clinical data previously submitted in K991134
supports the clinical safety of the subject device. |
| Conclusions
drawn from
studies | Additional studies were not conducted, therefore, the conclusions drawn from
studies previously submitted in K991134 support the non-clinical and clinical
safety of the subject device. The clinical studies published in the July 1999
CLAO Journal support the labeling modification that is the subject of this
510(k). |

For the disposable patient guide, the statement is revised to: "When ACUVUE UV Blocking Contact Lenses are replaced daily, the risk of developing giant papillary conjunctivitis may be reduced."
