K113316 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the DCS LACRIMAL STENT. Classified as Lacrimal Stents And Intubation Sets (product code OKS).

Submitted by Dcs Surgical, Inc. (Boulder, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on November 8, 2012 after a review of 365 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Ophthalmic FDA review panel. 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.
