OnPoint Vision has announced FDA investigational device exemption approval for its AccuraSee device, according to a press release.
The AccuraSee is an intraocular pseudophakic capsular lens (IOPCL) magnifier for secondary implantation in the capsular bag with a pre-existing posterior chamber IOL. The neutral optic magnifies near images when implanted in patients with low-vision pseudophakia and age-related macular degeneration.
The company also announced a third refractive early feasibility study investigational device exemption approval to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the monofocal IOPCL to improve near or intermediate vision. The monofocal IOPCL was previously studied in patients with low vision.
