Class 2
Intended Use
The Noncon Robo Pachy F&A is a non-contact ophthalmic microscope, optical pachymeter, and camera intended for examination of corneal endothelium and for measurement of the thickness of the cornea.
Device Story
Non-contact ophthalmic device combining specular microscope, optical pachymeter, and camera. Inputs: infrared-focused images of corneal endothelium and anterior segment. Operation: device captures images; computer-assisted software performs cell counting and analysis of cell distribution. Outputs: visual inspection, photography, and quantitative measurements (cell density, hexagonality, coefficient of variation). Used in clinical settings by eye care professionals. Images stored in system memory; output preserved via video tape or printer. Healthcare providers use quantitative data to assess corneal health and inform clinical decision-making regarding corneal status.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Clinical performance evaluated via study of 40 eye images analyzed by 4 classifiers using 3 methods (Manual, Center, PC-Assist). Primary endpoints: agreement and variability of cell density, hexagonality, and coefficient of variation. Results showed high agreement between methods; variability assessed via standard deviation of within-image results. Data limited to eyes with cell density >2100, coefficient of variation <0.41, and percent hexagonality >45.
Technological Characteristics
Non-contact specular microscope and optical pachymeter. Features infrared focusing, computer-assisted cell counting/analysis. Connectivity: video output for printer/tape. Software: updated algorithm and computer system. Standards: ISO 60601-1, ISO 60601-1-2. Sterilization: N/A (non-contact).
Indications for Use
Indicated for examination of corneal endothelium and measurement of corneal thickness in patients requiring such ophthalmic assessment. Intended for prescription use.
Regulatory Classification

(4) Description
The Noncon Robo Pachy F&A specular microscope and optical pachymeter is a non-contact ophthalmic microscope, optical pachymeter, and camera intended for examination of the corneal endothelium and for measurement of the thickness of the cornea. It is an improvement to the original Konan Noncon Robo Pachy, K980357.
The device permits visual inspection and photography of the corneal endothelium and measurement of the corneal thickness without any object contacting the eye. It features focusing by means of infrared techniques, and computer-assisted cell counting and cell analysis capabilities. The computer functions are also used to aid in setting up the various features of the machine and to aid in photographic images are temporarily stored in the system's memory, and are preserved in video form on magnetic tape or by using a video printer. The memory can store two endothelial cell images and two anterior segment images, which are usually those of the left and right eyes.

### (5) Intended Use
The Konan Noncon Robo Pachy F&A is a specular microscope and optical pachymeter, manufactured by Konan Inc. It is a non-contact ophthalmic microscope and camera intended for examination of the corneal endonelium, with the additional capability of measuring the corneal thickness by optical means. Cell counting endomalysis programs are included, and are indicated when it is desired to analyze the images of the cell distribution of the eye.
### (6) Technological characteristics
The Konan Noncon Robo Pachy is technically the same as the predicate device, the Konan Noncon Robo F&A, with the addition of an improved cell counting algorithm and a new computer. The computer program that controls the system has been modified to be used with the new computer and to include the new algorithm.
### (b) Performance data
### (1) Non-clinical tests
The non-clinical tests done for the original Noncon Robo Pachy to the Noncon Robo Pachy F&A, since the device is essentially the same. A new software validation test has been done, to validate the new software. ISO 60601-1 and IS) 60601-1-2 have been repeated because of the new electronics, and a test has been done on the new algorithm.
(2) Clinical tests
A clinical test was performed with four "classifiers", each analyzing the same 40 images of eyes. Each classifier analyzed each image three. The analyses of the classifiers were analyzed for cell density, hexagonality, and coefficient of variation.
Agreement and variability of the analysis methods was obtained using a sample that included virtually no eyes with Percent Hexagonality <45, Coefficient of Variation >0.41, or Cell Density <2100. Agreement and variability of the analysis methods is not known for eyes with parameters beyond these values.
{2}------------------------------------------------
Page 1-3
### Agreement Between Methods of Analysis
For a single image from each cye, cell density, coefficient of variation and percent hexagonality were determined by each analysis method. For a given parameter and pair of methods of image analysis, agreement between outputs was assessed. This was done by taking the difference between the two outputs for each image and then calculating the mean difference, and the 95% limits of agreement. These measures of agreement between analysis methods were calculated for each parameter. Note that each measure estimates the degree of agreement between the different methods of analysis applied to a single image. It does not take into account variation due to repeated image capture. Variations between different images of the same eye will significantly reduce agreement. The listed values should not be taken as estimates of the agreement of the measurements associated with repeated image capture.

## Variability Associated with the Analysis Methods
The variability of the results associated with each analysis method was assessed. For each of the forty images, cell density, coefficient of variation and percent hexagonality were determined by each method. Each analysis was repeated on the same image three (presentation was randomized) by each of four "classifiers." For a given analysis method, the standard deviation of the within-image results was calculated as a measure of variability. Note that this measure estimates the variability associated only with repeated application of the analysis method to a single image. Differences between two or more images of the same eye will significantly increase variability. The listed values should not be taken as estimates of the variability of the measurements associated with repeated image capture.

| PC-Assist (without<br>redrawing) | 0.78 | 8.02 | 12.67 |
| Center Method | 1.23 | 6.60 | 6.42 |
* Value in table is the mean across 40 images of the variability standard deviation (square root of the sum of the "within-observer" variance pius the "between-observer" variance) divided by the mean value for the image (expressed as a percentage) .
