The Largan U38(Polymacon) Daily Wear Soft (hydrophilic) Contact Lens is a daily wear soft contact lens indicated for the correction of refractive ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) in phakic or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes who exhibit refractive astigmatism of 1.00D or less where the astigmatism does not interfere with visual acuity. The Largan U38(Polymacon) Daily Wear Soft (hydrophilic) Contact Lens for Astigmatism is indicated for daily wear for the correction of ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) with astigmatism in aphakic and non-aphakic persons with nondiseased eyes and whose powers are from -10.00 to +3.00 diopters and astigmatic corrections are from -0.25 to -5.00 diopters. The Largan U38(Polymacon) Daily Wear Soft (hydrophilic) Contact Lens for Presbyopia is indicated for daily wear for the correction of ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) and emmetropia with presbyopia in aphakic and non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eves and whose powers are from -10.00 to +3.00 diopters with add powers from +0.75 to +3.50 diopters. The lenses may be worn by persons who exhibit astigmatism of 1.00 diopters or less where the astigmatism does not interfere with visual acuity. Eye care practitioners may prescribe the lens for either single-use disposable wear, or for frequent/planned replacement wear, with cleaning, disinfection, and scheduled replacement. When prescribed for single-use disposable wear, the lens is to be discarded after each removal, therefore no cleaning or disinfecting is required. When prescribed for frequent replacement, the lens may be disinfected using a chemical disinfection system only.
Device Story
Largan U38 is a daily wear, soft, hydrophilic contact lens; hemispherical flexible shell design; aspherical, toric, or multifocal configurations. Material: Polymacon (HEMA and EGDMA copolymer); 38% water content; contains Reactive Blue 247 handling tint and benzophenone UV-absorbing monomer. Used by patients for vision correction; prescribed by eye care practitioners for single-use disposable or frequent/planned replacement. Supplied in sterile buffered saline. Benefits include refractive error correction and UV radiation blocking. No clinical data required due to material equivalence to predicate.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing, including oxygen permeability, refractive index, water content, polymerization residuals, modulus, tensile strength, elongation, toughness, sterility, shelf-life, and biocompatibility (cytotoxicity, ocular irritation, systemic toxicity).

Dear Amy Tien:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug. and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not eyaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

## 1.5 Device Description
The Largan U38(Polymacon) Daily Wear Soft (hydrophilic) Contact Lens is available in hemispherical flexible shells for myopia, astigmatisam and presbyopia. The Largan U38 (Polymacon) Daily Wear Soft (hydrophilic) Contact Lens is an aspherical design contact lens. The lens material (Polymacon) is a hydrophilic co-polymer by cross-linking 2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA). and Ethylene Glycol Dimethacrylate (EGDMA). The hydrated lens consists of 62.0% (Polymacon) and 38.0% water by weight of saline immersed in normal saline. A light blue color tinted with "reactive Blue 247" is for handling visibility purpose. A benzophenone UV absorbing monomer is used to block UV radiation. The average transmittance characteristics are less than 5% in the UVB range of 280 to 315nm and less than 50% in the UVA range of 315 to 380 nm. It is supplied in a sterile package with buffered saline solution.
