The One Day Flat Pack (hioxifilcon A) Daily Disposable Soft Contact Lens is indicated for daily wear single use only for the optical correction of refractive ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) in phakic or aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes who may have 1.00D or less of astigmatism. The lens is intended to be worn once and then discarded at the end of each wearing period on a daily basis. The patient should be instructed to start the next wearing period with a new lens.
Device Story
One Day Flat Pack is a daily disposable soft contact lens made of hioxifilcon A (non-ionic copolymer of 2-HEMA and GMA). The device functions as a refractive medium to focus light on the retina. The primary innovation is the 'Flat Pack' packaging system, which is approximately 1mm thick and designed to present the lens anterior side up to facilitate easier handling and correct orientation for patient insertion. The lens is intended for single-use by patients with refractive ametropia. It is supplied in a buffered saline solution. The device is used by the patient for daily vision correction; the healthcare provider prescribes the lens based on refractive needs. The packaging design aims to improve user compliance and ease of use compared to traditional blister packs.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data was required for this submission. Safety and efficacy of the hioxifilcon A lens material were previously established in K080632. Substantial equivalence for the new packaging system was demonstrated through non-clinical bench testing, including packaging integrity, stress tests, and biocompatibility/toxicology studies.

# Purpose of 510(k) notification:
- 1) Change in lens packaging system to new and innovative, 'Flat Pack Technology'.
Was: Traditional, 'Blister' packaging Now: Innovative, 'Flat Pack' packaging
#### Equivalent Predicate Devices:
The One Day Flat Pack (hioxifilcon A) Daily Disposable Soft Contact Lenses are substantially equivalent to the following predicate device:
1. Clear 1-Day (hioxifilcon A), K080632, Manufactured by Clearlab SG Pte Ltd.
# Device Description:
The One Day Flat Pack (hioxifilcon A) Daily Disposable Soft Contact Lens is available as a single vision spherical lens. The hydrophilic nature of this material allows the lens to become soft and pliable when immersed in an aqueous solution.
The One Day Flat Pack Daily Disposable Contact Lens packaging system is designed to reduce lens handling by always presenting the lens anterior side up upon opening, which ensures correct lens orientation for proper eye insertion. The approximately 1mm flat packaging system is easily opened and reinforces the single-use factor.
The non-ionic lens material, (hioxifilcon A) is a random copolymer of 2- hydroxyethyl methacylate (2-HEMA) and 2,3-Dihydroxypropyl Methacrylate (Glycero) Methacrylate, GMA) cross-linked with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate. It consists of 42% hioxifileon A and 58% water by weight when immersed in a buffered saline solution. The lens is available with a blue visibility-handling tint, color additive 'Reactive Blue # 19', 21 CFR part 73.3121. The United States Adopted Names Council (USAN) has adopted the (hioxifilcon A) name.
In the hydrated state, the lens conforms to the eve covering the corner and extending slightly beyond the limbus forming a colorless, transparent optical surface. The hydrophilic properties of the lens require that it be maintained in a fully hydrated state in a solution compatible with the eye. If the lens dries out, it will become hard appear somewhat warped however, it will return to its proper configuration when completely rehydrated in the proper storage solution.
{2}------------------------------------------------
# 510(k) PREMARKET NOTIFICATION One Day Flat Pack (hioxifilcon A) Single Use Contact Lens

#### Substantial Equivalence:
Lenses supplied in the Flat Packaging are within established specifications for the lens design and are equivalent to the predicate device lenses supplied in the blister pack packaging. The lens design maintains established physical characteristics, and are stable and biocompatible with the ocular environment.
- . Both the blister and flat package have components made from polypropylene and laminated foil.
- . Traditional blister pack has its base made from polypropylene with a laminated foil sealed on top. Flat package uses the same material with 2 laminated foils and an additional polypropylene disc to ensure correct lens orientation when opened.
The following non-clinical studies demonstrate that lenses supplied in the Flat Pack packaging are substantially equivalent to lenses supplied in the blister pack.
Non-clinical Studies A series of in vivo preclinical toxicology and biocompatibility tests were performed to assess the safety and effectiveness of the contact lenses packaged in the Flat Packaging system. All non-clinical testing was conducted according to valid scientific protocols.
> Furthermore, a series of packaging integrity tests, stress tests, and simulations tests were performed on the Flat Packaging system to assess overall robustness and demonstrate the integrity of the packaging system.
Test results of the non-clinical testing on the One Day Flat Pack (hioxifilcon A) Daily Disposable Soft Contact Lens demonstrate that:
- Lenses supplied in the Flat Pack packaging system are sterile, .
- The packaging material and extracts are not toxic and not irritating, and .

Two short videos show you everything — or skip straight to the written tutorial if you'd rather read. You can reopen this any time from the Tutorial button in the top bar.
Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
