Intended Use
The ACUVUE Contact Lens (spherical) is indicated for daily wear for the correction of refractive ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) in aphakic or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes who may have 1.00 D or less of astigmatism. The ACUVUE BIFOCAL Contact Lens is indicated for daily wear for the correction of distance and near vision in presbyopic, aphakic or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes who may have 0.75 D or less of astigmatism. The ACUVUE TORIC Contact Lens is indicated for daily wear for the correction of visual acuity in aphakic or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes that are hyperopic or myopic and may have 10.00 D or less of astigmatism. The ACUVUE TORIC BIFOCAL Contact Lens is indicated for daily wear for the correction of distance and near vision in presbyopic aphakic or non-phakic persons with non-diseased eyes who may have 10.00D of astigmatism or less. ACUVUE UV Blocking Contact Lenses help protect against transmission of harmful UV radiation to the cornea and into the eye. 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 frequent/planned replacement wear, the lens may be disinfected using a chemical disinfection system only.
Device Story
ACUVUE soft (hydrophilic) contact lenses (etafilcon A) are indicated for daily wear to correct refractive errors including myopia, hyperopia, presbyopia, and astigmatism. Lenses incorporate UV-blocking properties to reduce transmission of UV radiation to the eye. Prescribed by eye care practitioners for single-use disposable or frequent/planned replacement wear. For frequent replacement, lenses require cleaning and chemical disinfection. Device serves as a vision correction aid; UV blocking provides supplemental ocular protection. No changes to material, manufacturing, or physical properties from predicate; submission solely updates indications for use labeling.
Clinical Evidence
No new clinical studies were conducted. Safety and efficacy are supported by clinical data previously submitted in N18-033/S31 and K962804. The submission relies on the established clinical history of the lens material and design.
Technological Characteristics
Soft (hydrophilic) contact lens composed of etafilcon A. Features UV-blocking capability (82% UVA, 97% UVB). No changes to materials, dimensions, or manufacturing processes from predicate.
Indications for Use
Indicated for daily wear correction of refractive ametropia (myopia/hyperopia), presbyopia, and astigmatism in aphakic or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes. UV blocking feature included.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A soft (hydrophilic) contact lens is a device intended to be worn directly against the cornea and adjacent limbal and scleral areas of the eye to correct vision conditions or act as a therapeutic bandage. The device is made of various polymer materials the main polymer molecules of which absorb or attract a certain volume (percentage) of water.

| Intended use | The reason for the 510(k) is to add the following Indications Statement (see <b>bold text</b> ) for ACUVUE (etafilcon A) soft (hydrophilic) contact lenses, clear and visibility tint, with UV blocker, for daily wear. The revised Indications Statement is included with this 510(k): |
| | The ACUVUE Contact Lens (spherical) is indicated for daily wear for the correction of refractive ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) in aphakic or non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes who may have 1.00 D or less of astigmatism. |

| Characteristics | The characteristics do not change. They are the same as previously submitted<br>in N18-033/S31 and K962804. |
|--------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Non-clinical<br>studies | Non-clinical studies (microbiology, toxicology, chemistry, shelf-life, and<br>leachability) on the lens material were not conducted because the lens<br>material, etafilcon A, does not change. Non-clinical studies were conducted to support the following modified<br>Actions in the labeling. The average UV blocking for ACUVUE Contact Lenses with UV<br>Blocker for UVA is 82% and for UVB is 97%. |
| Clinical studies | This 510(k) describes a labeling modification: an additional Indications<br>Statement. There is no change in lens material, the manufacturing process,<br>nor the parameters and properties, therefore, the clinical data previously<br>submitted in N18-033/S31 and K962804 supports the clinical safety of the<br>subject device. |
| Conclusions<br>drawn from<br>studies | Additional studies were not conducted, therefore, the conclusions drawn from<br>studies previously submitted in N18-033/S31 and K962804 support the non-<br>clinical and clinical safety of the subject device. |
