Class 2
Intended Use
The 4Sight is a multi-purpose diagnostic ophthalmic ultrasound system intended to make axial length, anterior chamber depth, lens thickness and corneal thickness measurements of the internal structure of the eye.
Device Story
4Sight is a multi-purpose diagnostic ophthalmic ultrasound system; combines A-scan, B-scan, and pachymetry functionalities into a single stand-alone platform. Device inputs include ultrasonic signals captured via dedicated transducers (A-scan, B-scan, Pachymeter). System processes these signals to perform axial length, anterior chamber depth, lens thickness, and corneal thickness measurements; visualizes internal eye structures. Operated by ophthalmologists or technicians in clinical settings. Output displayed on integrated control unit; assists clinicians in ocular diagnostics and surgical planning. Benefits include consolidated diagnostic workflow and accurate biometric measurements for ophthalmic procedures.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Verification testing compared 4Sight A-scan and pachymetry functions against predicate devices using mechanical dial indicators and test fixtures; results met 0.1mm acceptance criteria. Internal validation confirmed system operation and usability. External validation conducted at 4 clinical sites by experienced technicians/ophthalmologists; safety ranked 5/5 by all users, with overall ratings of 4 or 5/5. No clinical data involving human subjects for diagnostic outcomes was required.
Technological Characteristics
Standalone system with control unit (4 PCBs) and transducers. Materials identical to predicates (ISO 10993 compliant). Energy source: AC to DC adapter. Connectivity: Standalone unit with display, keyboard, and footswitch. Standards: EN 60601-1 (Safety), EN 60601-1-2 (EMC), IEC 60601-2-37 (Ultrasonic safety). Software: Windows 8 platform. Algorithms: Same as predicate devices for ultrasound processing and IOL calculations.
Indications for Use
Indicated for ophthalmic diagnostic ultrasound imaging and measurement of axial length, anterior chamber depth, lens thickness, and corneal thickness in patients requiring ocular assessment.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A biopsy needle guide kit intended for use with an ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.

| Description of the Device: | The 4sight device is designed to combine the<br>functionalities of Accutome's A-scan Plus (K123349), B-<br>scan Plus (K070943) and Accupach Pachymeter (K042752)<br>devices into a combined, stand-alone platform. |
{5}------------------------------------------------
The device performs axial length measurements, corneal thickness measurements and images the internal structure of the eye using these 3 modalities.
The 4Sight is a stand-alone system which runs on a Windows 8 platform consisting of a 4Sight control unit, transducers, footswitch, and keyboard.
The 4Sight is a multi-purpose diagnostic ophthalmic Indications for Use: ultrasound system intended to make axial length, anterior chamber depth, lens thickness and corneal thickness measurements of the eye and visualize the internal structure of the eye.
Comparison of Technological Characteristics to the predicate device:
All of the critical functions of the 4Sight device are calculated in exactly the same manner as in the predicate devices. The Ascan, B-scan, and pachymetry probes used with the 4Sight are exactly the same as the probe used on the predicate devices. The software algorithms for clinically critical functions, i.e. to process ultrasound measurements and calculate intraocular lens parameters remain exactly the same as in the predicate devices.
The new standalone 4Sight model uses a standalone control unit as the main computing vehicle and display instead of the personal computer. The software modifications in the 4sight model are those necessary to interface the processing, data storage, display, and printing capabilities of a combined, standalone control unit.
The 4Sight control unit consists of (4) printed circuit boards enclosed in a plastic case. This includes a 1 PCB for power management, 1 PCB to control the pachymeter function, 1 PCB to control the A-scan function and 1 PCB to act as a connector board. The PCB for A-scan functionality is unchanged from the A-scan Plus Connect predicate device.
The energy source for the 4Sight is AC to DC adapter used to power the Accupach Pachymeter predicate device.
{6}------------------------------------------------
| | The chemical composition of patient contact materials is<br>identical to that of the predicate device as the probes have not<br>changed. |
|-----------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Standards Testing: | EN 60601-1 Medical Electronic Equipment Part 1: General<br>Requirements for Safety<br>Both this device and the predicates were tested to, and found to<br>be compliant with EN 60601-1. |
| | EN 60601-1-2 Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic<br>Compatibility – Requirements and Tests<br>Both this device and the predicate were tested to, and found to<br>be compliant with EN 60601-1-2. |
| | IEC 60601-2-37 - Safety of Ultrasonic Medical Diagnostic and<br>Monitoring Equipment<br>Acoustic Measurements for the predicate devices have been<br>evaluated by Acertara Laboratories and Sonora Laboratories. |
| | EN/ISO 10993 - Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices<br>The same probes are used with this device as with the predicate<br>device which were tested to ISO10993; the materials have not<br>changed. |
| Verification Testing: | A-scan Physical Accuracy Test<br>This test compares the distance measured ultrasonically by the<br>A-Scan function on the 4sight and the physical distance<br>measured by a mechanical dial indicator. The test results for<br>both the A-Scan function and the predicate device were well<br>within the 0.1mm acceptance criteria. |
| | Results:<br>Both the A-scan Plus Connect model and the predicate device<br>were well within the 0.1mm acceptance criteria. |
| | Pachymetry Comparison Test: Accupach VI (predicate) vs.<br>4Sight<br>The objective of this test is to compare critical parameter<br>results between the two devices under conditions of the same<br>input test fixture and values. |
| | Results: |
{7}------------------------------------------------
All of the data met the established acceptance criteria
#### Internal Validation Tests Validation Testing:
A test plan was developed to evaluate proper operation and usability for all device modes/options.
# Results:
All operations and features were fully functional. There were no errors or deficiencies in the patient information. The usability was judged to be equivalent to the predicate device.
# Software Validation Testing
317 software requirements specified in the software requirement specification were tested and validated during the software validation process.
All software bugs discovered during the validation process, with the exception of one minor anomaly, were corrected during the process.
# External Validation Tests
A checklist was developed which requests quantified critique regarding the safety, functionality and usability of the device. A Rating Scale from 1 to 5 was used with: 5 = best, very user friendly, no problems; and 1 = not acceptable, very unfriendly, significant problem that must be corrected.
# Results:
The device was evaluated at 4 different locations by experienced technicians/ophthalmologists.
Safety was ranked 5 by every user. The "Overall Rating" of the device was 4 or 5 by all users. There were no ratings of 1 or 2 in any of the tests.
# Validation Tests Summary
The internal and external validation tests demonstrate along with risk analysis and testing to applicable standards that there are no known safety issues with the 4Sight device.
{8}------------------------------------------------
The tests further demonstrate that there are no significant functionality issues and that the usability of the device is equivalent to that of the predicate device.
#### Conclusion:
The positive results of the testing above, along with the risk analysis performed, demonstrate that the 4Sight is at least as safe and as effective as the predicate devices.
