K100954 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ADAPT, MODEL AX-03SN. Classified as Adaptometer (biophotometer), Software-based Data Acquisition And Stimulus Generation (product code OUM), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Apeliotus Vision Science, Inc. (Atlanta, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on February 25, 2011 after a review of 324 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Ophthalmic FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 886.1050 - the FDA ophthalmic device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Ophthalmic review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
