Class 2
Intended Use
Menicon Progent Protein Remover for Rigid Gas Permeable Contact Lenses, when used as directed, cleans and removes protein deposits from fluorosilicone acrylate rigid gas permeable contact lenses.
Device Story
Menicon Progent is a two-part chemical protein removal system for RGP contact lenses. It consists of two sterile solutions: Progent A (sodium hypochlorite) and Progent B (potassium bromide). The user mixes these solutions in a Menicon SP Vial and soaks the lenses for 30 minutes. The treatment is typically performed every two weeks, or as directed by an eye care professional (maximum frequency every 5 days). The device functions by chemically breaking down protein deposits on the lens surface. After soaking, the lenses must be rinsed; the device supports the use of sterile normal saline as a rinsing agent. The system is intended for use by contact lens wearers to maintain lens hygiene and comfort, potentially extending the useful life of the lenses by preventing protein buildup.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Residual Progent testing was conducted to compare the rinsing effectiveness of sterile normal saline against the predicate's sterile purified water. Results confirmed that active chlorine concentrations and pH values of the rinsing solutions were equivalent, demonstrating that the new rinsing protocol does not affect the safety or efficacy of the protein removal system.
Technological Characteristics
Two-part chemical solution system: Progent A (sodium hypochlorite) and Progent B (potassium bromide). Requires a Menicon SP Vial for mixing. Rinsing agent: sterile normal saline. Class II medical device (21 CFR 886.5918).
Indications for Use
Indicated for cleaning and removing protein deposits from fluorosilicone acrylate rigid gas permeable (RGP) contact lenses.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A rigid gas permeable contact lens care product is a device intended for use in the cleaning, conditioning, rinsing, lubricating/rewetting, or storing of a rigid gas permeable contact lens. This includes all solutions and tablets used together with rigid gas permeable contact lenses.

## 4. Description of device
Menicon Progent Protein Remover for Rigid Gas Permeable Contact Lenses is the mixture of two sterile solutions, Progent A (active ingredient, sodium hypochlorite) and Progent B (active ingredient, potassium bromide). Progent A and B are mixed in a Menicon SP Vial. Allow lenses to soak in the Progent solution mixture for 30 minutes. Soaking for longer than 30 minutes is not recommended. The Progent treatment is recommended every two weeks. The frequency may vary according to the condition of your lens. Follow your eye care professional's directions (to a maximum of every 5 days).
#### 5. Indications for use
Menicon Progent Protein Remover for Rigid Gas Permeable Contact Lenses, when used as directed, cleans and removes protein deposits from fluorosilicone acrylate RGP contact lenses.
#### 6. Substantial equivalence
The claim of substantial equivalence to the previously cleared Menicon Progent Protein Remover for Rigid Gas Permeable Contact Lenses is based on the fact that the active components of the protein remover system (Progent Solution A and Progent Solution B) are the same formulation as the predicate devices. The only change is the addition of an alternative rinsing solution, sterile normal saline, versus sterile purified water cleared in 510(k) K082855..
In support of this application, nonclinical testing (Residual Progent Testing) was done to prove that the rinsing effectiveness of the new rinsing solution, sterile normal saline, was equivalent to the rinsing solution used in the previously cleared 510(k) K0828 55, sterile purified water.
Residual Progent Testing was performed to determine the amount of residual Progent Solution that remains following the lens rinsing process. Rinsing solutions were collected and measure to determine the remaining active chlorine concentration and pH of the rinsing solutions.
{2}------------------------------------------------
### 6. Substantial equivalence (continued)
This test was originally performed in 2009 with the sterile purified water used as a rinsing solution in K082855. In support of this application the test was repeated with sterile normal saline as a rinsing solution. A comparison of the two sets of data was completed and based on active chlorine concentrations and pH values it was confirmed that the rinsing efficacy of sterile normal saline was equal to the rinsing efficacy of the sterile purified water.
Based on these results the Menicon Progent Protein Remover for RGP Contact Lenses with sterile saline rinse is substantially equivalent to the Menicon Progent Protein Remover for RGP Contact Lenses with sterile purified water rinse.
In addition the Progent solutions may be manufactured at an alternate manufacturing site, Gujo Factory, Menicon Nect, Co., Ltd.
