2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

• Test Set Sample Size: Not applicable in the context of this submission. The "test set" here refers to non-clinical laboratory testing, not human clinical trials with a defined patient sample size. The biocompatibility tests used cell lines (L-929 Mouse), guinea pigs, and rabbits. Electrical and EMC tests were performed on the device itself.
• Data Provenance: The data provenance is from laboratory testing performed by Alcon Research, Ltd. or its contracted labs. The country of origin of the data is not explicitly stated but is implicitly where Alcon conducted its R&D and testing. The data is prospective in the sense that these tests were conducted specifically for this submission, but they are not clinical prospective studies.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

• This question is not applicable to this type of submission. "Ground truth" in the context of expert consensus or clinical outcomes is relevant for diagnostic or AI-driven systems. For device safety and performance testing like biocompatibility, EMC, and electrical safety, the "ground truth" is established by adherence to recognized international standards (e.g., ISO, EN, IEC) and the expertise of certified laboratory personnel. No clinical experts were involved in establishing the "ground truth" for the non-clinical tests described.
