    Intended Use

    The VisuMax Laser Keratome is indicated for the following:

    • In the creation of a corneal flap in patients undergoing LASIK surgery or other treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea;
    • In patients undergoing surgery or other treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea;
    • In the creation of a lamellar cut/resection of the cornea for lamellar keratoplasty;
    • In the creation of a cut/incision for penetrating keratoplasty and corneal harvesting.
    Device Description

    The VisuMax Laser Keratome is an ophthalmic surgical femtosecond laser intended for use in patients requiring corneal incisions. The cutting action of the VisuMax Laser Keratome is achieved through precise individual micro-photodisruptions of tissue, created by tightly focused ultrashort pulses which are delivered through a disposable applanation lens while fixating the eye under very low vacuum.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the Carl Zeiss Meditec VisuMax Laser Keratome. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices and expanding indications for use.

    However, the document does not contain specific acceptance criteria, a detailed study proving the device meets those criteria, sample sizes for test or training sets, information about ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, or MRMC study results. The information provided is primarily focused on the device's technical characteristics, intended use, and a summary of pre-clinical testing, which is often used to demonstrate substantial equivalence rather than explicitly proving performance against predefined acceptance criteria for a new device.

    Therefore, I cannot populate the requested table and answer many of the questions directly from the provided text. I will indicate where information is missing or not applicable based on the document.


    1. Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document does not explicitly state quantitative acceptance criteria for device performance. Instead, it aims to demonstrate substantial equivalence in performance to predicate devices for expanded indications. The "reported device performance" in this context refers to the findings from the ex-vivo studies.

    Acceptance Criteria (Not explicitly stated as numeric thresholds)Reported Device Performance (from ex-vivo studies)
    For Lamellar Keratoplasty Incisions:
    Accuracy and Reproducibility"Ex-vivo porcine eye studies demonstrate the accuracy and reproducibility of the VisuMax Laser Keratome for lamellar keratoplasty incisions and that the level of precision is maintained over a wide range of incision diameters and depths. The results further demonstrate that the proposed device performed equivalently to the predicate device."
    For Full Penetrating Keratoplasty Performance:
    Quality of Performance"Ex-vivo study in human globes shows that the quality of the full penetrating keratoplasty performance of the VisuMax Laser Keratome and the predicate device are comparable."
    General Equivalence to Predicate Devices"The VisuMax Laser Keratome has the same operating characteristics as the predicate devices... Therefore, the VisuMax Laser Keratome is substantially equivalent to these legally marketed predicate devices." and "The VisuMax Laser Keratome is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices." (Conclusion section)

    Study Details:

    1. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

      • Sample Size: Not specified in the provided text for either the porcine eye studies or the human globes study.
      • Data Provenance:
        • "Ex-vivo porcine eye studies"
        • "Ex-vivo study in human globes"
        • The location of these studies (country of origin) is not specified.
        • Both are "pre-clinical" studies, implying they are not retrospective or prospective clinical studies on live patients.
    2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience):

      • Not specified. The studies are ex-vivo (on animal and human globes), and the evaluation of "accuracy," "reproducibility," and "quality" would likely involve objective measurements or expert assessment, but the number and qualifications of evaluators are not detailed.
    3. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

      • Not specified.
    4. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

      • No. This is a medical device (laser keratome), not an AI diagnostic tool. Therefore, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study with human readers assisting/being assisted by AI is not relevant to this device's evaluation as described. The comparison is between the new device and predicate devices in performing surgical cuts.
    5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

      • Yes, implicitly. The performance data presented refers to the device's ability to make incisions ("accuracy and reproducibility," "quality of performance") when compared to predicate devices, during ex-vivo studies. This evaluates the device's intrinsic function. The device's operation still requires a human operator, but the performance "testing" as described focuses on the machine's output in isolation (the cut it makes).
    6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

      • Not explicitly stated. For "accuracy," "reproducibility," and "quality" of surgical incisions, the ground truth would likely be based on objective measurements (e.g., microscopy, optical coherence tomography to measure incision depth, diameter, smoothness, and morphology against predefined surgical targets) possibly interpreted or confirmed by expert ophthalmologists/pathologists, but this is not detailed in the summary.
    7. The sample size for the training set:

      • Not applicable. This device is a surgical laser, not a machine learning model, so there is no "training set" in the sense of data used to train an algorithm. The device's design and engineering would have involved extensive testing and calibration during development, but this is distinct from "training data" for an AI.
    8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

      • Not applicable (as it's not an AI/ML device with a training set).

    Intended Use

    The LensAR Laser System is intended for use in anterior capsulotomy during cataract surgery.

    Device Description

    The LensAR Laser System is an ophthalmic surgical laser intended for use in anterior capsulotomy in cataract surgery. The System employs a mode-locked Nd: Y VO4 laser which generates a high frequency series of ultrashort, low energy pulses at a wavelength of 1064 nm. The system is designed to cut the lens capsular tissue, with minimal collateral damage, by the mechanisms of plasma mediated ablation and photodisruption of targeted tissue at the beam focus. The precision capsulotomy is generated by computer-controlled scanning of the position of the laser beam focus in three dimensions at the target location of the anterior capsulotomy. The laser energy is delivered to the eye through a disposable, patient interface device consisting of an Index Matched Eye Docking device (IMED) designed to match the refractive index of the cornea to optimize beam targeting accuracy. The IMED device is docked to the eye via an accessory component comparable to those used with other ophthalmic lasers used as keratomes.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document describes the premarket notification 510(k) for the LensAR Laser System for Anterior Capsulotomy.

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

      Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
      Creation of uniform, accurate, and predictable anterior capsulotomies (size and depth).The data demonstrated the LensAR produces anterior capsulotomies that are uniform, accurate, and predictable in size (based on testing in porcine eyes and plastic substrates). Clinical analysis included pointing accuracy and performance characteristics for achieving an effective anterior capsulotomy cut.
      Safety with respect to corneal endothelium (acoustic and thermal profile).Evaluation on ex vivo porcine eyes confirmed the safety with respect to corneal endothelium.
      Successful performance of anterior capsulotomy, with successful intraocular lens placement.Anterior capsulotomy was successfully performed in eyes using the LensAR Laser, with intraocular lenses successfully placed. Postoperatively, the course of follow-up through 3 months was unremarkable. The intraocular lens was centered in all study eyes. All capsulotomies were judged well-centered by visual inspection.
      Ease of removal of capsules comparable to or better than Continuous Curvilinear Capsulorhexis (CCC).The ease of removal scores were 5 or better (on a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 = CCC/manual removal, 10 = easiest), with the most common score being 10.
      Anterior capsules from laser-treated eyes should be equivalent or better with respect to dimension and conformance to circularity than those done manually.The removed anterior capsules from the laser-treated eyes were demonstrated to be equivalent or better with respect to dimension and conformance to circularity than those done manually.
      No significant difference in clinical outcomes from the sequelae of cataract surgery between treatment and conventional cataract surgery (CCC) populations.No significant difference in clinical outcomes from the sequelae of cataract surgery was demonstrated between the Treatment and Treated Control populations.
    2. Sample sizes used for the test set and data provenance

      • Test Set (Clinical): The study was a "prospective, single-center, multiple surgeon clinical trial." No specific sample size is provided for the number of eyes or patients in the LensAR Laser arm. The report mentions a "contralateral control population," suggesting at least some patients had one eye treated with LensAR and the other with CCC, but also states "not all fellow eyes underwent cataract surgery in the context of the clinical study."
      • Data Provenance: The clinical trial was a prospective, single-center study. The country of origin is not explicitly stated, but the submission is to the FDA in the USA.
      • Pre-Clinical Testing: Porcine eyes and plastic substrates were used for accuracy, reproducibility, acoustic, and thermal profile testing.
    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and qualifications of those experts

      • The document does not explicitly state the number of experts or their qualifications for establishing ground truth.
      • However, it does mention that "All capsulotomies were judged to be well centered by the surgeon using visual inspection in the operating microscope," indicating that the treating surgeons provided some form of assessment.
    4. Adjudication method for the test set

      • The document does not describe a formal adjudication method (like 2+1 or 3+1). The assessment of capsulotomy centering was done by the operating surgeon via visual inspection.
    5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

      • No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This device is a surgical laser system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or imaging device used by human readers.
    6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

      • Yes, the device's performance was evaluated in a standalone manner. The LensAR Laser System performs the anterior capsulotomy itself, and its performance characteristics (accuracy, reproducibility, safety, quality of cut) were assessed pre-clinically and clinically. The laser is a computer-controlled system for creating the cut.
    7. The type of ground truth used

      • Clinical Ground Truth: Surgical success (successful capsulotomy and IOL placement, unremarkable postoperative course, centered IOLs), surgeon's visual inspection for capsulotomy centering, and subjective surgeon judgment for ease of capsule removal. The removed anterior capsules were also physically analyzed for dimension and circularity.
      • Pre-Clinical Ground Truth: Measurements of capsulotomy size and depth in porcine eyes and plastic substrates, and evaluation of acoustic and thermal profiles in ex vivo porcine eyes.
    8. The sample size for the training set

      • No information is provided regarding a separate "training set" for the device itself. The device is a surgical instrument with computer control, not a machine learning algorithm that requires a distinct training dataset in the same sense as an AI diagnostic tool. The development process likely involved internal testing and refinement (bench testing and ex vivo studies) that could be considered analogous to iterative development, but it's not described as a formal "training set."
    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

      • As there's no explicitly defined "training set" in the context of an AI algorithm, details on how ground truth was established for it are not applicable here. The device's design and parameters were likely optimized through engineering and bench testing, for which the "ground truth" would be objective measurements of physical parameters and cut quality against design specifications.

    Intended Use

    The IntraLase® FS Laser is an ophthalmic surgical laser with the following indications for use:

    • . In patients undergoing surgery or other treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea;
    • . In patients undergoing surgery or other treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea to create tunnels for placement of corneal ring segments;
    • In lamellar keratoplasty and corneal harvesting;
    • In the creation of a corneal flap in patients undergoing LASIK surgery or other o treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea:
    • . In the creation of a lamellar cut/resection of the cornea for lamellar keratoplasty and in the creation of a penetrating cut/incision for penetrating keratoplasty.
    Device Description

    The IntraLase FS Laser is a precision ophthalmic surgical laser designed for use in performing lamellar corneal resections and incisions. The cutting action of the IntraLase FS Laser is achieved through precise individual microphotodisruptions of tissue, created by tightly focused ultrashort pulses which are delivered through a disposable applanation lens while fixating the eye under very low vacuum.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided 510(k) summary for the IntraLase FS Laser (K060372) does not contain a detailed study proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria in the format requested.

    Instead, this 510(k) relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices (K993153, K001211, K002890, K013941, K031960, K041893). The summary explicitly states:

    • "The IntraLase FS Laser has undergone testing and is in compliance with applicable safety standards."
    • "The IntraLase FS and the accessory IntraLase Patient Interface were found to perform equivalently to the predicate Laser for the creation of corneal resections with respect to incremental changes."
    • "Thus, the IntraLase FS Laser and the predicate device have similar safety, effectiveness and performance profiles."
    • "The changes made to the labeling do not alter the performance or indication of this device."

    This means the submission's evidence for performance is based on the prior clearance and established safety/effectiveness of the predicate devices, rather than a new clinical study with defined acceptance criteria for this specific submission.

    Therefore, many of your requested items about a standalone study, acceptance criteria, sample sizes, ground truth, and expert adjudication cannot be extracted from this document because such a study is not described.

    However, based on the information available, here's what can be stated:


    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    As noted above, specific numerical acceptance criteria (e.g., minimum accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, etc.) for a new performance study are not provided in this 510(k). The primary "acceptance criterion" demonstrated is substantial equivalence to predicate devices. The reported "performance" is that it performs "equivalently" to the predicate in creating corneal resections with respect to incremental changes.

    Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
    Equivalent safety to predicate deviceFound to have "similar safety... profiles" to predicate Laser
    Equivalent effectiveness to predicate deviceFound to have "similar... effectiveness and performance profiles" to predicate Laser
    Equivalent performance in creating corneal resections with respect to incremental changesFound to "perform equivalently to the predicate Laser for the creation of corneal resections with respect to incremental changes."

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • Test Set Sample Size: Not specified. The document refers to "testing" but does not detail the size or nature of any test set used in a clinical or performance study for this specific 510(k).
    • Data Provenance: Not specified.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    • Number of Experts: Not applicable, as detailed clinical efficacy data with expert ground truth is not provided.
    • Qualifications of Experts: Not applicable.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set:

    • Adjudication Method: Not applicable, as detailed clinical efficacy data with expert ground truth is not provided.

    5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

    • MRMC Study: No. This device is a surgical laser, not an AI-assisted diagnostic device.

    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • Standalone Study: The submission describes bench testing and compliance with safety standards and states the device performs "equivalently" to predicate devices. This implies non-clinical performance evaluation, but it's not a "standalone" clinical efficacy study as typically understood for diagnostic AI devices. The laser operates as a standalone surgical tool.

    7. The type of ground truth used:

    • Type of Ground Truth: Not explicitly stated as "ground truth" in the context of clinical outcomes. The "equivalency" claim implies that the performance (e.g., quality of corneal resections) in non-clinical testing was assessed against established standards or performance of the predicate device.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    • Training Set Sample Size: Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set.

    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • Ground Truth for Training Set: Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set and ground truth establishment.
