## 510(k) Summary - cont. (ref. 807.87h)
- 5. The MICROspecialties 200200 and 600600 keratome blades are designed for use with Moria Microkeratome systems. The 200200 blade is for use with the Moria, Model LSK Microkeratome and the 600600 for use with the Moria, Model CB Microkeratome.
A risk analysis was performed to provide a systematic approach to the evaluation of hazards associated with the keratome blades.
Independent physicians and clinics were used to evaluate the performance of the 200200 and 600600 microkeratome blades as part of a nonclinical evaluation The evaluation included package handling, ease of use, performance on the respective Moria microkeratomes.
Engineering, manufacturing and inspection specifications were finalized based on this evaluation. A design validation was conducted to validate the appearance, compatibility with the Moria microkeratomes and performance within these systems. The blades go through 100% inspection to insure that they meet the product specification and follow design controls of MICROspecialties.
