General Information Submitter: BIOLASE Technology, Inc. 4 Cromwell Irvine, CA 92618. Contact Person: Maureen O'Connell 5 Timber Lane North Reading, MA 01864 Telephone: 978-207-1245 Fax: 978-207-1246 Summary Preparation Date: June 30, 2006 . Oculase MD 2. Names Device Name: Classification Name: Ophthalmic Laser Product Code: HQF #### 3. Predicate Devices The Oculase MD® is substantially equivalent to a combination of the following devices: BIOLASE's WaterLase® (K031140, K030523, K012511, K011041), and DermaLase™ (K971459), MSq (M2) Ltd. MSq Family of Lovely Light/Laser Systems (K042000), Laserscope's Erbium:YAG Laser System and Accessories (K971843), Aesculap-Meditec's MCL 29 Dermablate Erbium Laser System (K964128), Pfizer Laser Systems' Centauri (K905141), and the Friendly Light ER:YAG Pulsed Laser (K000023). #### 4. Device Description The Oculase MD Er,Cr:YSGG (Erbium, Chromium: Yttrium, Scandium, Gallium, Garnet) tissue cutting system is a unique device with diverse ophthalmic tissue applications. A flexible fiber optic with handpiece delivers the laser wavelength to the target tissue. A red light emitted from the handpiece distal end pinpoints the area of treatment. The optical power output may be adjusted to specific user requirements for tissue applications. Laser radiation is delivered {1}------------------------------------------------ from the laser unit to the handpiece through the optical fiber. A sterile water spray is emitted at the same time laser radiation is delivered to the tissue site. The handpiece is rotatable and detachable from the optical shaft. The tip is detachable from the handpiece and serves as the optical power conduit to the target tissue. # 5. Indications for Use The Oculase MD is indicated for use in general ophthalmic soft tissue surgical indications such as: incision, excision, vaporization and coagulation of ocular tissue and tissue surrounding the eye and orbit. ## 6. Performance Data None presented. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the seal of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
