Intended Use

The Horus Laser Keratome is indicated for use in the creation of a corneal flap in patients undergoing LASIK surgery or other treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea.

Device Story

Horus Laser Keratome is a precision ophthalmic surgical laser for lamellar corneal resections. Device uses ultrashort laser pulses to create micro-photodisruptions in corneal tissue. System includes a disposable applanation lens and operates under low vacuum to fixate the eye. Used by surgeons in clinical settings to create corneal flaps for refractive procedures. Output is a precise tissue cut, facilitating subsequent surgical steps. Benefits include controlled, automated resection compared to mechanical microkeratomes.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Evidence consists of bench testing and extensive ex-vivo studies demonstrating performance equivalence to the predicate Hansatome Microkeratome for corneal resection.

Technological Characteristics

Ophthalmic surgical laser; utilizes ultrashort pulse photodisruption; includes disposable applanation lens; low vacuum eye fixation system. Class II device.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients undergoing LASIK surgery or other treatments requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

(1) A carbon dioxide laser for use in general surgery and in dermatology is a laser device intended to cut, destroy, or remove tissue by light energy emitted by carbon dioxide.(2) An argon laser for use in dermatology is a laser device intended to destroy or coagulate tissue by light energy emitted by argon.

Predicate Devices

# INTENDED USE

The Horus Laser Keratome is indicated for use in the creation of a corneal flap in patients undergoing LASIK surgery or other treatment requiring initial lamellar resection of the cornea.

## DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The Horus Laser Keratome is a precision ophthalmic surgical laser designed for use in performing lamellar corneal resections. The cutting action of the Horus Laser Keratome is achieved through precise individual mirco-photodisruptions of tissue, created by tightly focused ultrashort pulses which are delivered through a disposable applanation lens while fixating the eye under very low vaccum.

# SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

The Horus Laser Keratome has technological characteristics very similar to those of the IntraLase FS Laser, the laser predicate device, while the indication for use and the intended use are identical to those of the Hansatome Microkeratome.

#### SUMMARY

The Horus Laser Keratome has been designed and tested to applicable safety standards. In addition, the Horus Laser Keratome was found to perform equivalently to the predicate device, the Hansatome Microkeratome, with respect to the creation of cornea resections in extensive ex-vivo studies.

A statement of substantially equivalence to another product is required by 21 CFR 807.87 and relates only to whether the present product can be marketed without prior reclassification or clinical approval. The present submission is therefore not related to the coverage of any patent and is not to be interpreted as an admission or used as evidence in a patent infringement lawsuit. As the commissioner of the FDA stated: "A determination of substantial equivalence under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act related to the fact that the product can be lawfully marketed without pre-market approval or reclassification. The determination is not intended to have any bearing whatsoever on the resolution of patent infringement suits." 42 Federal Register 42, 50 et seq. (1977).

Dear Mr. Jones:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
