Intended Use
The Sight Sciences VISCO360® Viscosurgical System is a manually operated device for delivery of small amounts of viscoelastic fluid, for example HealonGV™ from Abbott Medical Optics (AMO), Amvisc™ from Bausch & Lomb, or PROVISCTM from Alcon, during ophthalmic surgery.
Device Story
VISCO360 is a sterile, single-use, manually operated handheld instrument used by ophthalmologists during ophthalmic surgery. It functions as a viscoelastic fluid delivery system, operating on a volume-exchange principle similar to a syringe. The device consists of a cannula, microcatheter, internal reservoir, plunger tube, and finger wheels. The surgeon uses finger wheels to advance the plunger tube into the viscoelastic reservoir, dispensing fluid through the microcatheter into the eye. The design allows for ambidextrous use in either the left or right eye. By facilitating precise delivery of viscoelastic fluids, the device assists the surgeon in maintaining ocular space or performing surgical maneuvers during ophthalmic procedures.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance testing evaluated the friction force required to advance the plunger tube into the reservoir. The modified device met acceptance criteria by demonstrating a significant reduction in friction force compared to the predicate device.
Technological Characteristics
Manually operated, single-use ophthalmic infusion device. Components include cannula, microcatheter, internal reservoir, plunger tube, and finger wheels. Operates on volume-exchange principle (syringe-like). No energy source; purely mechanical. Sterile.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in ophthalmic surgery for the delivery of viscoelastic fluids. No specific patient population, age, or gender restrictions are defined.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.

### SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE:
The modified Sight Sciences VISCO360® Viscosurgical System is substantially equivalent to the original Sight Sciences Viscoelastic Injector cleared under K143205. A minor design modification was made to the O-ring to reduce the force required to advance the plunger tube into the viscoelastic reservoir. The modified VISCO360 device has the same intended use and basic scientific technology as the original model.
{4}------------------------------------------------
## Description Of The Device:
The Sight Sciences VISCO360 Viscosurgical System is a sterile, single use, manually operated instrument used by ophthalmologists to deliver small amounts of viscoelastic into the eye during ophthalmic surgery. The VISCO360 is designed to function with commonly used viscoelastic fluids made commercially available by companies such as Abbott Medical Optics (AMO), Bausch & Lomb, and Alcon. The VISCO360 dispenses fluid on the principle of exchanging volumes much like a syringe. The handheld instrument includes a cannula, microcatheter, internal reservoir, plunger tube and finger wheels. The finger wheels on the handle of the device are used to advance the plunger tube into the viscoelastic fluid reservoir thereby dispensing viscoelastic fluid. The finger wheels are placed on both sides of the handle facilitating viscoelastic delivery in either the left or right eye (OD or OS) using either hand.

{5}------------------------------------------------
### Indications For Use:
The Sight Sciences VISCO360® Viscosurgical System is a manually operated device for delivery of small amounts of viscoelastic fluid, for example Healon™ or HealonGV™ from Abbott Medical Optics (AMO), Amvisc™ from Bausch & Lomb, or PROVISC™ from Alcon, during ophthalmic surgery.
### TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS:
The VISCO360 device consists of the following components and accessories:
- ► Cannula
- Microcatheter A
- A Internal reservoir
- A Plunger tube
- > Finger wheels
The VISCO360 dispenses fluid on the principle of exchanging volumes much like a syringe. The components responsible for the fluid dispensing are the following:
- The reservoir within the handle is analogous to a syringe plunger. Prior to use, the viscoelastic fluid is loaded into the reservoir.
- The plunger tube is connected to the microcatheter and it communicates with the reservoir. During use the plunger tube acts like a graduated cylinder.
- The microcatheter, initially located within the cannula, advances and retracts from the device to dispense fluid. The microcatheter is analogous to a syringe dispensing-tip.
- The user interfaces with the device by using the finger wheels. This action is analogous to moving the dispensing tip to the desired location and depressing the plunger handle.
### PERFORMANCE DATA:
The VISCO360's descriptive characteristics are well-defined and adequate to ensure equivalence to the predicate device. Additionally, performance testing was conducted to evaluate friction force necessary to advance the plunger tube into the reservoir. Acceptance criteria was based on the modified device having a significant reduction in this friction force in comparison to the primary predicate device.
{6}------------------------------------------------
Testing demonstrated that the modified device passed this functional test.
## Conclusion:
The Sight Sciences VISCO360 Viscosurgical System meets all product design requirements and applicable standards and embodies technological characteristics similar to the predicate device, the device has been shown to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device, and is safe and effective.
