Intended Use
The TrabEx Pro Handpiece is a manual ophthalmic surgical instrument with irrigation and aspiration functions.
Device Story
TrabEx Pro is a single-use, sterile, manual ophthalmic knife featuring an incision sealing sleeve. It connects to an external ophthalmic irrigation/aspiration (I/A) system to provide fluid management during surgery. Operated by a surgeon in a clinical setting, the device facilitates irrigation and aspiration to maintain anterior chamber stability or clear debris. The device does not contain internal electronics or software; it functions as a mechanical conduit for fluid flow. Clinical benefit is derived from its ability to perform precise surgical maneuvers while managing intraocular pressure and fluid dynamics via the connected I/A system.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Performance was validated by comparing irrigation and aspiration flow rates against the Trabectome (K040584). Biocompatibility testing included cytotoxicity, guinea pig maximization, ocular irritation, acute systemic toxicity, and material-mediated pyrogenicity per ISO 10993-1. Sterility was validated to a SAL of 10^-6 using radiation sterilization. Shelf life of 2 years was supported by accelerated aging per ASTM F1980-16 and package integrity testing per ISO 11607-1/2.
Technological Characteristics
Single-use, sterile, manual ophthalmic knife with incision sealing sleeve. External communicating device with limited (<24 hours) tissue contact. Irrigation/aspiration performance: min 3 ml/min at 0.59 psi (40 cm bottle height); aspiration 4 ml/min at max 4.8 psi (250 mmHg). Sterilization: radiation (SAL 10^-6). Shelf life: 2 years (ASTM F1980-16). Packaging: ISO 11607-1/2 compliant.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as a manual ophthalmic surgical instrument providing irrigation and aspiration during ophthalmic procedures.
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.

Dear Ms. Angela Mallery:
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 evaluate 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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's
{1}------------------------------------------------
requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.

| | Sterility | The TrabEx Pro was adopted into an existing radiation sterilization<br>process. The radiation sterilization dose range provided a Sterility<br>Assurance Level (SAL) of 10-6 in accordance with FDA Guidance,<br>"Submission and Review of Sterility Information in Premarket<br>Notification (510(k)) Submissions for Devices Labeled as Sterile"<br>issued on January 21, 2016. Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL)<br>testing was performed to support the direct and indirect contacting<br>components of the TrabEx Pro are non-pyrogenic. | |
| | Shelf Life | The labeled 2-year shelf life was supported with device performance<br>testing and package integrity testing as per ISO 11607-1 and -<br>2:2019, "Requirements for materials, sterile barrier systems and<br>packaging systems." Samples were aged in compliance with ASTM<br>F1980-16, "Standard Guide for Accelerated Aging of Sterile Barrier<br>Systems for Medical Devices." | |
| Conclusion | Conclusion(s) drawn from the nonclinical tests demonstrate the device is substantially<br>equivalent to the identified legally marketed device. | | |
