## Intended Use

The LensAR Laser System - fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) is intended for use in patients undergoing cataract surgery for removal of the crystalline lens. Intended uses in cataract surgery include anterior capsulotomy, laser phacofragmentation, and the creation of single-planc and multi-plane cuts/incisions in the cornea, each of which may be performed either individually or consecutively during the same procedure.

## Device Story

Ophthalmic surgical laser system; utilizes femtosecond laser pulses for anterior capsulotomy, phacofragmentation, and corneal incisions. Input: biometric system data (3D model of eye optical surfaces, including peripheral cornea). Operation: laser beam guidance system delivers pulses to target tissue; biometric system performs ray tracing to guide incision placement. Output: precise laser-cut incisions and lens fragmentation. Used in clinical settings by surgeons. Benefits: improved consistency of wound geometry and incision length compared to manual methods; reduced endothelial cell loss in specific incision geometries. System includes patient interface device (PID) and moveable optical head for docking.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Evaluated accuracy/reproducibility of laser vs. manual corneal incisions; laser incisions showed statistically significantly closer mean length to target and lower variance in geometry. Ex vivo porcine eye study compared endothelial cell loss; laser method showed statistically smaller percentage losses for specific incision geometries. Seal integrity testing showed no difference in leakage susceptibility between laser and manual methods. Hazard analysis confirmed ocular safety.

## Technological Characteristics

Femtosecond laser system; pulse energy control/monitoring; biometric system with scanning diode light source; LED eye illumination. Patient interface device (PID) with controlled force docking. Software-driven custom shot pattern generation. Connectivity: standalone system. Sterilization: not specified.

## Regulatory Identification

A phacofragmentation system is an AC-powered device with a fragmenting needle intended for use in cataract surgery to disrupt a cataract with ultrasound and extract the cataract.

#### DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The predicate LensAR Laser System is an ophthalmic surgical laser that has been cleared by the Agency for use in anterior capsulotomy and laser phaco fragmentation in cataract surgery performed individually or consecutively during the same surgery under K 120214 (LensAR Laser System - fs 3D).

The current LLS-fs 3D uses the same laser and the same beam guidance system to deliver laser pulses to the eye as the predicate LensAR device cleared via 510(k) K120214. Also, the patient interface device (PID), controlled force docking mechanism and moveable

{1}------------------------------------------------

optical head to dock the laser to the stationary patient are unchanged from that described in 510(k) K120214. The Indication for Use is now expanded to include creation of the incisions for entry to the eye in cataract surgery.

The LLS-fs 3D biometric system, which measures and constructs a three dimensional model of the optical surfaces within the eye, is unchanged from the predicate device except for software modifications to allow the system to analyze the shape and position of the peripheral cornea.

### STATEMENT OF INTENDED USE

The LensAR Laser System - fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) is intended for use in patients undergoing cataract surgery for removal of the crystalline lens. Intended uses in cataract surgery include anterior capsulotomy, laser phacofragmentation, and the creation of single-planc and multi-plane cuts/incisions in the cornea, each of which may be performed either individually or consecutively during the same procedure.

## TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS COMPARISON

The femtosecond laser system, including pulse energy control and monitoring, used in the current LLS-fs 3D is the same as that used in the predicate device cleared in K120214. The primary difference between the current LensAR Laser System - fs 3D device and the predicate device is the addition of software for the indication of single-plane and multiplane cuts/incisions in the cornea for cataract surgery.

In the predicate device, the biometric system measured the shape and position of the central cornea for use in the ray tracing necessary to correctly place laser incisions within the crystalline lens. In the current device, corneal measurements are also used to generate custom shot patterns for the corneal incisions.

- The activities used to evaluate the LensAR Laser System fs 3D (LLS-fs 3D) and . the information and reports provided in this 510(k) submission do not identify any new issues of safety or effectiveness. The optical radiation hazard analysis confirms the continuing ocular safety and the equivalence to the predicate device detailed in 510(k) K120214.

{2}------------------------------------------------

- The LLS-fs 3D laser technology and mechanism of laser-tissue interaction are . unchanged from that of the femtosecond laser cleared under K120214.
- The indication for use statement for anterior capsulotomy and laser . phacofragmentation for the LLS-fs 3D is the same as that of the predicate devices detailed in the table above and the indication for use statement for incisions of the cornea in cataract surgery is the same as the LenSx laser (K101626).
- The differences between the modified LLS-fs 3D and the predicate devices are . insignificant and do not affect the safety or effectiveness of the device.

### BRIEF SUMMARY OF PERFORMANCE TEST RESULTS

The performance data supporting substantial equivalence of the LensAR Laser System fs 3D to the predicate LensAR device is summarized as follows:

- An analysis of the optical radiation hazard to non-target tissue demonstrated that . the current LLS-fs 3D femtosecond laser, biometric system scanning diode light source, and patient eye illumination (light emitting diodes) are eye safe under all normal operating and known fault conditions.
- Evaluation of the accuracy and reproducibility of the locations and geometry of laser . vs. manual planar corneal cuts/incisions showed the mean incision length for the laser incision was statistically significantly closer to the target length than was the case for the manual CCIs. In addition, the variance of the angles of the entrance and exit planar incisions relative to the corneal surface showed that the laser incisions had statistically significantly lower variance for these geometry parameters compared to the manual incisions.
- Evaluation of the effect of the laser vs. manual incisions at the corneal periphery on ● endothelial cells of ex vivo porcine eyes showed that the laser verthed resultery on statistically smaller percentage losses compared to that of the manual issuition. method when the exit of the incision was normal to the surface but not significantly different when the exit incision geometry was at 45° to the surface.
- Evaluation of the incision seal integrity and wound structure after the laser vs. manual . incision for cataract surgery showed there was no difference in susceptiblity in. ma leakage between the two types of incisions. Overall, the testing showed that the manual and laser methods are statistically equivalent in sealability but that the laser method produces more consistent wound geometry.
- A hazard analysis of all potential hazards to the patient, surgeon and other system . operators was performed to consider all changes between the current LLS-fs 3D and predicate LLS-fs 3D device. The hazard analysis demonstrates that all potential hazards have acceptable levels of probability/severity characteristics.
