Intended Use
The Pentacam is designed to take photos of the anterior segment of the eye, which includes cornea, lens and anterior chamber. To evaluate: Corneal shape Analyse condition of the lens Densitometry, cataract degree and location using the Scheimpflug Image State of the lens (pre and post intraocular lens implant) Analyse anterior chamber (size, volume and angle) Pachymetry (thickness of the cornea) Scheimpflug Image Analysing center position of the cornea to iris and lens
Device Story
Pentacam Scheimpflug Camera is a non-invasive, table-mounted, AC-powered diagnostic system for anterior eye-segment imaging. Device uses blue light (UV-free, 475nm) slit illumination and a CCD camera to capture images based on the Scheimpflug principle. System automatically rotates to capture multiple photographs, which are processed to generate a 3D model of the eye. Operated by clinical staff in a clinic setting; patient stabilizes head via chin and forehead rests. Output includes digital images and calculated metrics (corneal shape, pachymetry, anterior chamber parameters, lens densitometry). Healthcare providers use these outputs to assess corneal topography, cataract status, and anterior chamber anatomy, aiding in clinical decision-making for ocular health and surgical planning (e.g., IOL implantation).
Clinical Evidence
Effectiveness demonstrated through internal company and independent clinical studies. No specific performance metrics (sensitivity/specificity) provided in the summary.
Technological Characteristics
Non-invasive Scheimpflug camera; blue LED (475nm, UV-free) illumination; CCD sensor; 15" color screen; 800x600 pixel resolution; 50VA power consumption; table-mounted form factor; non-contact except for chin/forehead rests.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring evaluation of the anterior eye segment, including corneal shape, corneal thickness (pachymetry), anterior chamber depth, volume, and angle, and lens condition (cataract degree, location, and opacity).
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An AC-powered slitlamp biomicroscope is an AC-powered device that is a microscope intended for use in eye examination that projects into a patient's eye through a control diaphragm a thin, intense beam of light.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is intended only for the visual examination of the anterior segment of the eye, is classified as Group 1 per FDA-recognized consensus standard ANSI Z80.36, does not provide any quantitative output, and is not intended for screening or automated diagnostic indications, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 886.9.

### Predicate Devices
The Pentacam Scheimpflug Camera is claimed to be substantially equivalent to the following currently market device:
NIDEK, EAS-1000 Anterior Eye-Segment Analysis System- K991284
### Device Description:
The Pentacam Scheimpflug Camera is a non-invasive, diagnostic system created to take photographs of the anterior segment of the eye, table mounted and AC powered. The system is based on the Scheimpflug Principle for Slit Image photography. The device consists of a measurement unit, power supply and a CPU. The measuring system uses blue light (UV-free) given to a slit to illuminate the eye, and a CCD-Camera for photography. The measuring system offers the possibility of automatically rotation to get photographs of every part of the eye. The system calculates from the photos a 3D-modell of the eye.

## Basics for Substantial Equivalence
- > The systems utilize the same or similar Operating System. They contain:
- > An optical system
- > A source of illumination for observation and photography
- > A CCD-Camera as photographic medium
- Both systems have the same intended use to measure the eye and the anterior eve segment A
- Both systems use the same device features like a 公
- > Head stabilizing device
- > External fixation target
- > Joy stick for control mechanism
- > Both systems are considered "Non Invasive" as defined in 21 CFR §812.3(k) and considered not to be a "Significant Risk Device" as defined in 21 CFR §812.3(m)
## Indications for Use
Intended Use: The Pentacam is designed to take photos of the anterior segment of the eye, which includes cornea, lens and anterior chamber. To evaluate:
Corneal shape
Analyse condition of the lens
Densitometry, cataract degree and location using the Scheimpflug Image State of the lens (pre and post intraocular lens implant)
