For storage of soft (hydrophilic), rigid gas permeable, and/or hard contact lenses. Use for storage during chemical disinfection only. Do not use during heat disinfection.
Device Story
Polaris Contact Lens Case is a storage container for soft, rigid gas permeable, or hard contact lenses. The device consists of two chambers (models #101 and #201) designed to hold contact lenses fully immersed in chemical disinfectant solution. It is intended for use by contact lens wearers or practitioners. The device does not utilize heat disinfection. By providing a sterile-compatible environment for chemical storage, the case helps maintain lens hygiene and integrity between wear cycles. The device is a passive, non-powered storage accessory.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only, including biocompatibility (ISO 10993-5:1999 cytotoxicity, ISO 10993-10:2002 irritation/sensitization, ISO 10993-11:2006 systemic toxicity) and leakage testing.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Polypropylene (ST757M, PT231M) and Polymer 27A55. Form factor: Two-chambered plastic case (models #101 and #201). Volume: 4.5ml (#101) or 3.0ml (#201) per chamber. Non-powered, passive storage device. Biocompatibility: ISO 10993 compliant.
Indications for Use
Indicated for storage of soft (hydrophilic), rigid gas permeable, or hard contact lenses for patients using chemical disinfection. Not for use with heat disinfection.

#### Conclusion
After comparison, it has been determined that Polaris Contact Lens Cases #101 & #201 have the same intended use, effectiveness, safety, and biocompatibility as the Ningbo Kaida Rubber & Plastic Technology Co., Ltd. Contact Lens Case (Multiple Brand Names) (K071081).
The size and volume are different than the predicate. The volume of each chamber in applicant device #101 contact lens case is 4.5 ml (2.3 cm square x 0.85 cm depth). The volume of each chamber in #201 contact lens case is 3 ml (2.1 cm diameter x 0.86 cm depth). Although the volumes of #101 & #201 contact lens cases are different than the predicate, the sizes of all contact lenses on the market are no larger than 1.4 cm diameter x 0.35 cm height, thus, any contact lens on the markets can be fully immersed into the chambers. These differences are not critical nor do they affect the safety or effectiveness of the devices.
The applicant performed biocompatibility testing based on ISO 10993 standards for contact lens cases. Additionally, the applicant performed leakage tests on each variant of the contact lens case. The result of testing and evaluation supports the claim of Polaris Contact Lens Case as the substantial equivalent of Ningbo Kaida Rubber & Plastic Technology Co., Ltd's. Contact Lens Case (Multiple Brand Names) (K071081).
