#### Device Name
Classification Name: Rigid gas permeable contact lens solution Proprietary Name: AOSEPT Clear Care Cleaning and Disinfecting Solution
#### Predicate Devices

#### Description
AOSept Clear Care Cleaning and Disinfecting Solution is an aqueous solution contains hydrogen peroxide 3% (stabilized with phosphonic acid), sodium chloride, a phosphate buffer system and a non-ionic surfactant.
#### Indications for Use
AOSept Clear Care Cleaning and Disinfecting Solution is indicated for use in cleaning, daily protein removal, disinfecting, and storing of soft (hydrophilic) or rigid gas permeable (fluoro silicone acrylate and silicone acrylate) contact lenses as recommended by your eve care practitioner.
## Description of Safety and Substantial Equivalence
A series of preclinical studies were previously conducted and reviewed by FDA to assess and demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of AOSept Clear Care with soft hydrophilic lenses. These studies were previously reviewed under two 510(k), K013512 and K003345. All toxicology and microbiological tests were conducted in accordance with GLP regulations. All other testing was conducted in accordance with and in conformance to applicable device regulations. The results further demonstrated that the solution is non-toxic and biocompatible.
The results sumerized below demonstrate that AOSept Clear Care is substantially equivalent to SOLO-Care Hard for cleaning, rinsing, disinfecting and storing rigid permeable (fluoro silicone acrylate and silicone acrylate lenses.
#### Compatibility
A study was conducted to verify the optical and physical parameters of Paraperm EW (Group II) and Fluoroperm 30 (Group III) hydrophobic contact lenses remain within specifications when used with AOSept Clear Care after 30 cycles. Paraperm EW (Group II) and Fluoroperm 30 (Group III) hydrophobic contact lenses were shown to be
{1}------------------------------------------------
compatible with AOSept Clear Care in terms of optical (power, base curve and diameter) and physical (visual appearance, % transmittance and microscope) properties
In addition, a compatibility study was successfully conducted to demonstrate the compatibility of AOSept Clear Care when used in conjunction with Focus Lens Drops and Aquify Lens Drops.
#### Microbiology
The antimicrobial activity of AOSept Clear Care was previously evaluated by the ISO 14729 (FDA 510(k)) Stand Alone Test and Regimen Test procedure for disinfection of contact lenses. The results, as previously reviewed under K013512 and K003345. demonstrated that AOSept Clear Care provides effective disinfection of contact lenses based on ISO 14729 and the FDA 510(k) performance criteria for contact lens disinfecting solutions.
#### Biocompatibility
AOSept Clear Care meets the guidelines set forth in the FDA's May 1, 1997 Guidance for Industry; Premarket Notification 510(k) Guidance for Contact Lens Care Products. In addition, compatibility was demonstrated with AOSept Clear Care and two currently marketed lubricating/rewetting drops (Focus Lens Drops and Aquify Comfort Drops),
#### Clinical
A one-month prospective randomized, trial consisting of a baseline visit and two follow-up visits were conducted with AOSept Clear Care. Subjects were randomized into two treatment groups according to which were to use the test and which were to use the control solution. Two thirds of subjects used the AOSept Clear Care, while and one-third used the control solution.
The data supports that AOSept Clear Care is an effective lens care system for rigid gas permeable lenses. The data also support that lenses treated AOSept Clear Care were clean after 1-month wear: 91% none or slightly deposited and 7% reporting lens needs cleaning at follow-up 2 visit. In addition, only 29% of the AOSept Clear Care users used lubricating drops prior to insertion every day and comfort was graded high (>8.5 [0-10 scale] at Follow-up 2). Subjects using the Aquify lubricating system showed higher comfort, fewer lens deposits and better lens wettability than those subjects using Focus Clerz.
In conclusion, the data supports that AOSept Clear Care is clinically acceptable as a care system for RGP lenses and is substantially equivalent to SOLO-Care Hard.
#### Substantial Equivalence
AOSept Clear Care Cleaning and Disinfection Solution is substantially equivalent to the SOLO-Care Hard Solution in cleaning, disinfecting, daily protein removal and storing of rigid gas permeable (fluoro silicone acrylate and silicone acrylate) contact lenses as recommended by your eye care practitioner.
