Intended Use

Menicon Nect Contact Lens Case is indicated for storage during chemical disinfection of soft (hydrophilic), rigid gas permeable and hard contact lenses. This case is for use during chemical disinfection only. Not to be used with heat disinfection.

Device Story

The Menicon Nect Contact Lens Case is a passive storage device for contact lenses during chemical disinfection. It consists of a molded dual-compartment base unit and two screw-on caps made of polypropylene resin. The right cap is marked 'R' and tinted blue to assist users in lens orientation. The device is available in two configurations: with or without internal ribs in the lens wells. It is intended for over-the-counter use by contact lens wearers. The device does not perform active processing; it provides a container for the user to immerse lenses in cleared chemical disinfection solutions. By facilitating proper storage and disinfection, the case helps maintain lens hygiene and patient ocular health.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Bench testing only, including biocompatibility evaluations (Cytotoxicity, Systemic Toxicity, Ocular Irritation) conducted in accordance with ISO 10993, confirming safety for the intended use.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Polypropylene resin. Design: Dual-compartment base with screw-on caps; 3.6 mL volume. Sterilization: Not sold sterile. Biocompatibility: Evaluated per ISO 10993. No electronic components, software, or energy sources.

Indications for Use

Indicated for storage during chemical disinfection of soft (hydrophilic), rigid gas permeable, and hard contact lenses. For use with chemical disinfection only; contraindicated for heat disinfection.

Description of Device The Menicon Nect Contact Lens Case consists of a molded dual compartment base unit and two screw caps. Both the base unit and screw caps are made from Polypropylene resin. The right screw cap is marked "R" and has a blue tint to assist patients who are not currently wearing their contact lenses. The lens compartments are of sufficient volume to allow contact lenses to be fully immersed during lens disinfection. The case is available in two models, one with ribs in the lens case wells and one without ribs in the lens case wells. {1}------------------------------------------------ K131875 #### 5. Indications for Use Menicon Nect Contact Lens Case is indicated for storage during chemical disinfection of soft (hydrophilic), rigid gas permeable and hard contact lenses. This case is for use during chemical disinfection only. Not to be used with heat disinfection. #### 6. Performance Data #### Non-Clinical Data Biocompatibility tests were conducted on the plastic components in accordance with ISO Part 10993 Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices. Testing included Cytotoxicity, Systemic Toxicity and Ocular Irritation. The test results indicate the components are safe for the intended use. #### Clinical Data Clinical studies were unnecessary for this application. Lens care solutions used with this contact lens case are already cleared for use as cleaning, rinsing, disinfection and storage solutions for soft (hydrophilic), rigid gas permeable and hard contact lenses. #### Conclusion Based upon the test data presented, the Menicon Nect Contact Lens Case is as safe, as effective and performs as well as the predicate device. A comparison of the new device and the predicate device is presented in Table 1. #### 7. Substantial Equivalence The claim of substantial equivalence to the previously cleared K121030 Sacks Holdings, Inc. Contact Lens Storage Case is supported by the Comparison of Characteristics in Table 1. {2}------------------------------------------------ ## 7. Substantial Equivalence (continued) Based upon the comparison the Menicon Nect Contact Lens Case is substantially equivalent to the K121030 Sacks Holdings, Inc. Contact Lens Storage Case. The contact lens cases are similar in design and volume. Both lens cases are manufactured from similar materials that have been proven to be safe for use. Both lens cases can be used for lens chemical disinfection treatments. Therefore, Menicon Nect Contact Lens Case is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. {3}------------------------------------------------ | Table 1 Comparison of Characteristics | | | |---------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | | Menicon Nect Co., Ltd. | Sacks Holdings, Inc. | | Device Name | Contact Lens Case | Contact Lens Storage Case | | Trade Name | Menicon Nect Contact Lens Case | Contact Lens Case | | 510(k) | K131875 | K121030 | | Classification | Ophthalmic | Ophthalmic | | Product Code | LRX | LRX | | Regulation Number | 21 CFR 886.5918<br>21 CFR 886.5928 | 21 CFR 886.5928 | | Class | II | II | | Intended Use | For storage during<br>chemical disinfection of soft<br>(hydrophilic), rigid gas permeable<br>and hard contact lenses.<br>This case is for use during<br>chemical disinfection only.<br>Not to be used with heat disinfection. | For storage during<br>chemical disinfection of soft<br>(hydrophilic), rigid gas permeable<br>and hard contact lenses.<br>This case is for use during<br>chemical disinfection only.<br>Not to be used with heat disinfection. | | Disinfection Type | Chemical; Not Heat | Chemical; Not Heat | | Design | Case Bottom with screw on caps<br>The letter "R" embossed on the right<br>cap.
