The KOWA hand-held retinal camera, KOWA GENESIS-D is a device intended to capture and save fundus images with mydriatic.
Device Story
Hand-held retinal camera captures fundus images using mydriatic; utilizes visible LED for observation and Xenon flash lamp for photography. Device features color CCD camera (2,000,000 pixels) to record images onto flash memory card in JPEG or uncompressed formats. Operated by clinicians in clinical settings for visual observation of fundus. Modification adds indirect diagnostic lens holder (K9L-LH51) as optional accessory. Output allows immediate viewing of captured images, aiding clinicians in ophthalmic diagnosis and documentation.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data; bench testing only. Substantial equivalence based on design comparison and technical specifications.
Technological Characteristics
Hand-held ophthalmic camera; 30-degree horizontal/25-degree vertical field of view; 5mm working distance; -15D to +35D diopter compensation. Light sources: visible LED (observation) and Xenon flash lamp (photography). Storage: flash memory card. Connectivity: digital image output (JPEG/uncompressed). Power: 60VA. Weight: approx. 1kg. Includes optional indirect diagnostic lens holder.
Indications for Use
Indicated for capturing and saving fundus images in patients requiring mydriasis for ophthalmic examination.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An ophthalmic camera is an AC-powered device intended to take photographs of the eye and the surrounding area.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a photorefractor or a general-use ophthalmic camera, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 886.9.

### Device identification:
| Device trade name: | KOWA GENESIS-D |
|----------------------|-------------------------------|
| Classification name: | CAMERA, OPTHALMIC, AC-POWERED |
| Product code: | HKI |
#### Intended use:
The KOWA hand-held retinal camera, KOWA GENESIS-D is a device intended to capture and save fundus images with mydriatic.
### Comparison:
The KOWA GENESIS-D was chosen as a substantially equivalent device. This modification is addition of optional goods for the predicate device. The predicate device is equipped with a highly sensitive CCD camera, does not require film for photography, and allows for immediate viewing of the image after image is captured.
The KOWA GENESIS-D and indirect diagnostic lens holder with lens has the following similarities to those of the predicate device:
- has the same indicated use,
- uses the same operating principle,
- incorporates the same basic optical design without the lens holder and lens,
- incorporates the same materials,
- incorporates the same power supply parts and circuits,
- incorporates the same light source,
- is packaged.

{1}------------------------------------------------
The only modification that was made is addition of the indirect diagnostic lens holder as an optional goods for the predicate device.
The comparison table of the predicate device and it with the indirect diagnostic lens holder is shown in Table B.
In summary, the predicate device with the indirect diagnostic lens holder described in this submission is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
## Conclusion:
:
The KOWA GENESIS-D and the indirect diagnostic lens holder with lens are equipped with the same fundamental technology and maintain the same level of safety performance. Therefore it has been concluded that there are no significant differences in the technological characteristics and safety of KOWA GENESIS-D that were cleared by addition the indirect diagnostic lens holder with lens.
