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 Story

Ophthalmic surgical femtosecond laser; creates corneal incisions/flaps via micro-photodisruptions. Input: tissue targeted by tightly focused ultrashort laser pulses; delivered through disposable applanation lens under low vacuum. Operation: 500 kHz pulse repetition rate; increased from 200 kHz; reduced peak power/therapy pulse energy. Used in clinical settings by ophthalmologists. Features: trackball, touchscreen GUI, improved patient support ergonomics, additional slit projector, IR light source for surgical field illumination. Output: precise lamellar/penetrating corneal cuts. Benefit: enables accurate, reproducible corneal surgery; facilitates lamellar and penetrating keratoplasty.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Ex-vivo porcine eye studies confirmed accuracy and reproducibility of lamellar keratoplasty incisions across various depths/diameters, showing equivalence to predicate. Ex-vivo human globe study confirmed comparable performance for full penetrating keratoplasty between subject and predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Femtosecond laser; 500 kHz pulse repetition rate; disposable applanation lens; low vacuum fixation. Includes trackball, touchscreen, IR light source, and slit projector. Hardware/software modified for increased pulse rate and improved ergonomics. Energy delivery parameters adjusted (reduced peak power/therapy pulse energy).

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients undergoing LASIK, lamellar keratoplasty, penetrating keratoplasty, or corneal harvesting requiring lamellar resection or corneal incisions.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

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. #### STATEMENT OF 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. #### TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS COMPARISON The VisuMax Laser Keratome laser is substantially equivalent to the HORUS Laser Keratome also by Carl Zeiss Meditec (K062314), as well as the IntraLase FS Laser (K041893) by Abbott Medical Optics. The VisuMax Laser Keratome has the same operating characteristics as the predicate devices, the HORUS (5062314), and the IntraLase FS Lasers (K993153, K001211, K002890. K013941. K031960. K041893. K060372. K063682. and K073404). Therefore, the VisuMax Laser Keratome is substantially equivalent to these legally marketed predicate devices. ## SUMMARY OR PROPOSED MODIFICATIONS INCLUDED IN THIS 510(K) PREMARKET NOTIFICATION The subject of this traditional premarket notification 510(k) is the expansion of the indications for use of the predicate device (HORUS Laser Keratome) to include lamellar keratoplasty and penetrating keratoplasty, consistent with the indication for use of the predicate device for other commercially available femtosecond lasers. The indications for use for the VisuMax Laser Keratome would be the same as those for the predicate device (the IntraLase FS Laser). {2}------------------------------------------------ Additionally, modifications have been introduced to the device hardware and software specifications in order to allow for the addition of the lamellar and penetrating keratoplasty capability and to enhance the laser's usability in the clinic setting. These modifications include: - An increase in pulse repetition rate from 200 kHz to 500 kHz to allow the . femtosecond resections and/or incisions to be performed with acceptable procedure times - An increase in the maximum average laser power as a result of the higher pulse . repetition rate, however the total laser energy delivered to the eye is unchanged - Reduction of the maximum laser pulse peak power and the therapy pulse energy . - The addition of a trackball and touch screen to the GUI . - Improved ergonomics of the Patient Supporting System and to the laser housing . to facilitate the ease of use - An additional slit projector to facilitate better patient handling . - An additional IR light source to improve illumination of the surgical field . ### BRIEF SUMMARY OF PRE-CLINICAL AND CLINICAL PERFORMANCE TESTING The VisuMax Laser keratome has been designed and tested to applicable safety standards. The performance data supporting safety and substantial equivalence of the VisuMax Laser Keratome to the predicate devices are summarized as follows: - 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. - Ex-vivo study in human globes shows that the quality of the full penetrating . keratoplasy performance of the VisuMax Laser Keratome and the predicate device are comparable. #### CONCLUSION The VisuMax Laser Keratome is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. {3}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/3/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
