Intended Use
The Flexlens Multifocal Soft Contact Lens (hioxifilcon A) and (hioxifilcon B) for Daily Wear is indicated for daily wear use for the correction of refractive ametropia (myopia, hyperopia and/or presbyopia) in non-aphakic persons.
Device Story
Lathe-cut soft contact lens; multifocal design with aspheric front surface and spherical base curve. Material: hioxifilcon A (41% polymer, 59% water) or hioxifilcon B (52% polymer, 48% water). Principle: simultaneous vision optics providing functional vision across distance-to-near range; pupil zone varies based on patient pupil size. Used by eye care professionals for patient vision correction. Lens is machined/polished in dry state; becomes soft/pliable when hydrated in saline. Benefits: provides refractive correction for ametropia and presbyopia.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance data for hioxifilcon A and hioxifilcon B materials referenced from previous 510(k) submissions (K983773 and K964528).
Technological Characteristics
Non-ionic copolymers of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (2-HEMA) and 2,3-Dihydroxypropyl Methacrylate (GMA). Hioxifilcon A: 59% water, 1.404 refractive index, 18x10^-11 Dk. Hioxifilcon B: 48% water, 1.404 refractive index, 15x10^-11 Dk. Lathe-cut manufacturing; aspheric front surface; spherical base curve. Available clear or with phthalocyanato (2) - (copper) blue visibility tint.
Indications for Use
Indicated for daily wear correction of myopia, hyperopia, and/or presbyopia in non-aphakic patients.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A soft (hydrophilic) contact lens is a device intended to be worn directly against the cornea and adjacent limbal and scleral areas of the eye to correct vision conditions or act as a therapeutic bandage. The device is made of various polymer materials the main polymer molecules of which absorb or attract a certain volume (percentage) of water.

The physical properties of the hioxifilcon B lens are:
The Flexlens Multifocal Soft Contact Lens (hioxifilcon A) and (hioxifilcon B) for Daily Wear is a lathe-cut soft lens multifocal with an aspheric front surface and a spherical base curve. In the dry (unhydrated) state the lens is machined and polished. The hydrophilic nature of this material allows the lens to become soft and pliable when immersed in an aqueous solution. The progressive optics utilize the simultaneous vision concept which offers functional vision from distance to near throughout the viewing range. The pupil zone on the front surface varies with the size of the patient's pupil.
#### V. Intended Use
The Flexlens Multifocal Soft Contact Lens (hioxifilcon A) and (hioxifilcon B) for Daily Wear is indicated for daily wear use for the correction of refractive ametropia (myopia, hyperopia and/or presbyopia) in non-aphakic persons.
