Intended Use
VISULAS combi is intended for use in photocoagulating and photodisrupting ocular tissues in the treatment of diseases of the eye, including: • Photocoagulation of the retina • Trabeculoplasty • Iridotomy • Posterior capsulotomy • Posterior membranectomy
Device Story
VISULAS combi is an ophthalmic laser system for photocoagulation (532 nm) and photodisruption (1064 nm) of ocular tissues. System components include laser console, touch control panel, laser slit lamp or indirect ophthalmoscope, foot switch, and table. Operates in single-spot, multi-spot, and YAG disruption modes. Used in clinical settings by physicians. Photocoagulation uses continuous wave thermal energy absorption; photodisruption uses laser-induced plasma formation to create mechanical shock waves for tissue incision. Output is controlled laser energy delivered to ocular structures. Benefits include precise treatment of retinal and anterior segment pathologies. Physician visualizes target via slit lamp and controls parameters via console to affect clinical decision-making and therapeutic outcomes.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence established via bench testing, biocompatibility testing (ISO 10993-1), and software verification/validation. System testing confirmed compliance with electrical/laser safety standards (ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60825-1, etc.).
Technological Characteristics
Solid-state frequency-doubled laser (532 nm) and Q-switched Nd:YAG laser (1064 nm). Features include LED-illuminated slit lamp, micromanipulator, and foot switch. Connectivity via laser console. Software-controlled treatment modes (VERTE, VITE, YAG licenses). Complies with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60825-1, and ISO 15004-2.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring photocoagulation or photodisruption of ocular tissues for eye diseases, including retinal photocoagulation, trabeculoplasty, iridotomy, posterior capsulotomy, and posterior membranectomy.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

Dear Tanesha Bland:
We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

The subject device VISULAS combi and the secondary predicate device VISULAS yag are both intended as ophthalmic lasers for photodisruption freatments, the indications for use are within the same intended use as the reference device and do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. The subject device VISULAS combi and the reference laser system share fundamental parameters and the same fundamental principle of operation:
Photodisruption: At the focus point of the laser beam pressure and temperature are very high to result in the formation of a laser-induced plasma allowing tissue photodisruption to take place. As the plasma expands, it cools down rapidly; hence, the thermal effect on adjacent tissue is very low. The mechanical stress to adjacent tissue due to the shock wave accompanying the photodisruption expansion of the plasma results in an incisional effect.
For photoisruption treatments, the subject device VISULAS combi is substantially equivalent to the secondary laser system presented in the 510(k) premarket notification in terms of indications for use and technological characteristics. Differences between subject device and reference devices do not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness.

Below the word, there is a curved shape, also in blue, that suggests a lens or optical element. The overall design is clean and modern, reflecting the company's focus on precision optics and technology.

#### CONCLUSION 8.
The VISULAS combi is substantially equivalent to the primary predicate device VISULAS green (K232051) and the secondary predicate device VISULA yag (K230350).
The VISULAS combi is similar in technological characteristics, performance, principles of operation, and has identical indications for use as the primary predicate device and the secondary predicate device. Any differences between the proposed device and the predicate devices do not raise any new issues.
Results of the non-clinical performance testing support a determination of substantial equivalence between the subject device and the predicate devices for the proposed intended use.
Thus, the VISULAS combi meets the requirements for substantial equivalence as compared to the predicate devices, VISULAS green (K232051) and VISULAS yag (K230350).
