#### III. PREDICATE DEVICE
The Metro Soft, Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lens (efrofilcon A) is substantially equivalent to the following predicate devices:
- . "Metro Soft, Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lens (efrofilcon A)" Manufactured by Metro Optics of Austin, Inc. 510(k) Number: K100244
- "IntelliWave3, Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lens (efrofilcon A)" Manufactured by Art Optical Contact Lens, Inc. 510(k) number: K230824
#### DEVICE DESCRIPTION IV.
The Metro Soft, Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lenses are fabricated from efrofilcon A, which in the dry (unhydrated) state may be machined and polished. The hydrophilic nature of this material allows the lens to become soft and pliable when immersed in an aqueous solution.
The non-ionic lens material, (efrofilcon A) is a daily wear silicone hydrogel contact lens that is not surface treated and characterized by a high water content. The lens material is composed of silicone monomers cross linked with other monomers and optionally incorporates RB246 (1,4-Bis[4-(2-Methacryloxyethyl) phenylamino]-9, 10-Anthraquinone)as an integrated handling tint. The lenses are made by lathe-cut for individual patients. It consists of 26% efrofilcon A and 74% water by weight when immersed in a buffered saline solution. The (efrofilcon A) name has been adopted by the United States Adopted Names Council (USAN).
In the hydrated state, the lens conforms to the curvature of the eye covering the cornea and extending slightly beyond the limbus forming a colorless, transparent optical surface. The (efrofilcon A) soft hydrophilic contact lens has a spherical back surface. The hydrophilic properties of the lens require that it be maintained in a fully hydrated state in a solution compatible with the eye. If the lens dries out, it will become hard and appear somewhat warped however, it will return to its proper configuration when completely rehydrated in the proper storage solution.
The physical properties of the Metro Soft, Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lens (efrofilcon A) are as follows:
| | IntelliWave3, Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft |
|--------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------|
| | Contact Lenses |
| Refractive Index (wet) | 1.3770 |
| Visible light transmission (%) @ 380-780nm | 94.4% |
| Specific Gravity (wet) | 1.049 |
| Water Content | 74±2% |
| Oxygen Permeability<br>(Dk) | 56 x 10-11 (cm2/sec) (ml O2/ml x mm Hg @ 35°C) |
| ISO/FATT Method | |
{6}------------------------------------------------
The hydrophilic characteristics allow aqueous solutions to enter the lens and in its fully hydrated state the lens is approximately 74% water by weight. The lenses will be manufactured in spherical, aspherical, toric, multifocal, multifocal toric and irregular cornea configurations with the following features and properties.:

| Cylindrical Power (Toric) | -0.25 D to -12.00 D | When 0.00 < F'v ≤ 2.00 D → ±0.25 D<br>When 2.00 < F'v ≤ 4.00 D → ±0.37 D<br>When F'v > 4.00 D → ±1.00 D |
| Cylindrical Power (Multifocal Toric) | -0.25 D to -4.00 D | When 0.00 < F'v ≤ 2.00 D → ±0.25 D<br>When 2.00 < F'v ≤ 4.00 D → ±0.37 D |
| Cylindrical Axis | 1º to 180º (in 1º steps) | ± 5º |
| Add Power (Multifocal) | +0.50 D to +4.00 D | ± 0.25D |
The lens is supplied sterile in vials containing a buffered saline solution. Vial labeling is printed with appropriate lot numbering, expiration dating and lens parameter identification. Expiration dating has been established based on studies of product stability, package integrity, and validation of the sterilization process.

#### VII. PERFORMANCE DATA
## ~ Non-Clinical Studies ~
The following non-clinical testing was performed on Metro Soft, Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lens (efrofilcon A):
Bench Testing-manufacturing verification testing was conducted to demonstrate our firm's ability to manufacture the finished lenses, on a repeatable basis, from supplied lens blanks to a variety of prescribed parameters. All lenses were manufactured to established finished product specifications within the ANSI Z80.20 tolerance.
Shelf Life-Testing was performed to evaluate the stability, sterility, and package integrity of the lenses over the duration of the labeled expiration date. The data presented supports establishment of the proposed shelf life.
Toxicology-All biocompatibility/toxicology tests were conducted in accordance with the GLP regulation.
- In-Vitro Cytotoxicity: Cytotoxicity testing was performed in accordance with ● ISO 10993-5 with results indicating that the finished lenses are not cytotoxic.
- Systemic Toxicity: The finished lenses meet the requirements of the systemic ● injection test in accordance with ISO 10993-11 and are considered not acutely systemically toxic.
{11}------------------------------------------------
- Acute Ocular Irritation: Acute ocular irritation testing was performed in . accordance with ISO 10993-10, and the extracts from finished lenses produced no ocular irritation.
The following non-clinical testing was performed previously or by the lens material manufacturer for finished contact lenses manufactured from efroficon A contact lens blanks:
Toxicology-All biocompatibility/toxicology tests were conducted in accordance with the GLP regulation.
- Skin Sensitization Study (Maximization Test): The skin sensitization study was conducted on the finished lenses in accordance with ISO 10993-10, and the contact lens extracts did not produce skin sensitization.
- . 22-Day Ocular Irritation: The 22-day ocular irritation test was conducted in accordance with ISO 9394 on the finished lenses, and the finished contact lenses produced no ocular irritation.
The biocompatibility of the primary packaging and packaging solution have been previously addressed under the predicate K100244 and there are no changes to these components as compared to the predicate.
Performance Testing-The following bench tests were completed: refractive index, water content, Dk, % transmission, tensile strength, modulus, % elongation to break, specific gravity and quantification of polymerization residuals. Results of physicochemical and mechanical property testing demonstrate consistent material properties between the efrofilcon A, Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lenses and the predicate device.
Preservative Uptake and Release-efrofilcon A, Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lenses were analyzed for uptake and release of preservatives found in lens care products. Testing was conducted according to ISO 11986:2017. Ophthalmic optics - Contact lenses and contact lens care products - Determination of preservative uptake and release. Uptake and release profiles of efrofilcon A contact lenses for the preservatives tested demonstrate sub-detection limit amounts of release at each time point evaluated.
Solution Compatibility-The physical compatibility of efrofilcon A, Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lenses with commonly available cleaning and disinfection solutions (peroxide and MPDS) was confirmed following the methodology described in ISO 11981:2017, Ophthalmic optics - Contact lenses and contact lens care products - Determination of physical compatibility of contact lens care products with contact lenses.

~ Clinical Studies ~
Clinical testing was not necessary for this application.
~ Conclusions Drawn from Testing ~
Results from testing presented in this premarket notification for the Metro Soft, Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lens (efrofilcon A) demonstrate no relevant differences from the predicate devices and support the substantial equivalence claim.
## VIII. CONCLUSIONS
## Substantial Equivalence
Information presented in this premarket notification establishes that Metro Soft, Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lens (efrofilcon A) for daily wear are as safe and effective as the predicate device when used in accordance with the labeled directions for use and for the proposed indications.
## Risks and Benefits
The risks of the subject device are the same as those normally attributed to the wearing of soft (hydrophilic) daily wear contact lenses. The benefits to the patient are the same as those for other soft contact lenses.
