Indications for Use
The AdaptTM is an AC powered, automated adaptometer (biophotometer) intended to measure the time for retinal adaptation after exposure to an adapting light.
Device Story
AdaptTM is an AC-powered, automated adaptometer (biophotometer) used to measure retinal dark adaptation speed. The device utilizes an adapting light to photobleach the retina, followed by a stimulus light to evaluate recovery. It incorporates an infrared camera for monitoring, refractive correction, and a chin rest for patient positioning. Controlled by software, the device automates the testing process, which is performed in a clinical setting. The system measures parameters including rod-cone break and rod intercept to characterize adaptation speed. Healthcare providers use these outputs to assess retinal health, specifically in patients with conditions like age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The device provides objective, repeatable measurements of dark adaptation, aiding in the clinical evaluation of retinal function.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical performance was evaluated through an agreement study and a precision study. The agreement study (n=12) compared AdaptTM to the predicate, showing high correlation in rod-cone break and rod intercept parameters. The precision study (n=14 normal, n=8 AMD patients) assessed repeatability over two weeks; results showed high correlation between visits and precision comparable to the predicate device.
Technological Characteristics
AC-powered automated adaptometer. Features include photobleach light source, stimulus light source, infrared camera, refractive correction mechanism, and chin rest. Software-controlled operation. System components include flash, stimulus, fixation light, patient input, and patient management subsystems.
Indications for Use
Indicated for measuring retinal adaptation time following exposure to an adapting light in patients requiring assessment of dark adaptation function.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An adaptometer (biophotometer) is an AC-powered device that provides a stimulating light source which has various controlled intensities intended to measure the time required for retinal adaptation (regeneration of the visual purple) and the minimum light threshold.

| Date Prepared: | February 18, 2011 |
| Trade Name: | AdaptTM |
| Classification: | 886.1050 |
| Product Codes: | HJW |
| Predicate Device: | Goldmann-Weekers adaptometer |
| Device Description: | The AdaptTM is an AC-powered, automated, adaptometer<br>(biophotometer). |
| Intended Use: | The AdaptTM is an AC powered, automated adaptometer (biophotometer)<br>intended to measure the time for retinal adaptation after exposure to an<br>adapting light. |
| Comparison of<br>Technological<br>Characteristics: | The AdaptTM is technologically substantially equivalent to the predicate<br>in being AC-powered and having a similar design with photobleach light<br>and stimulus light to evaluate dark adaptation. The AdaptTM differs from<br>the predicate primarily in that it is controlled by software. |
| Verification &<br>Validation Testing<br>Testing: | Verification testing was conducted on the following subsystems: Flash,<br>Stimulus, Fixation Light, Patient Input & Patient Management, Infrared<br>Camera, Refractive Correction, and Chin Rest. Software<br>verification/validation was conducted and computer control and<br>integration was verified. Calibration & Alignment were verified.<br>Testing demonstrated that the device met product specifications and<br>performance requirements. Validation testing, including conducting dark<br>adaptation testing on subjects, was also conducted.<br>All results met final requirements and demonstrate substantial<br>equivalence to the predicate device. |
| | |
| Clinical<br>Performance<br>Testing: | An Agreement Study was conducted comparing the AdaptTM against the<br>predicate with 12 adults having a range of eye health status. Dark<br>adaptation speed as characterized by both the rod-cone break and the rod<br>intercept parameters was found to be highly correlated between the two<br>instruments.<br>A Precision Study was conducted among 14 adults with normal retinal<br>health and 8 patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD).<br>Each participant was tested twice separated by two weeks. Dark<br>adaptation speed was characterized using both the rod-cone break and rod<br>intercept parameters. For comparison, similar measurements were made<br>on a separate group of 6 normal adults using the predicate. Dark<br>adaptation speeds for the AdaptTM were highly correlated between the<br>first and second visits for both parameters, and the precision of the<br>AdaptTM was comparable to the predicate. |
| Conclusion: | By comparison of design features and by testing the AdaptTM, we<br>conclude it is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. |
