K211715 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the RetinAI Discovery. Classified as System, Image Management, Ophthalmic (product code NFJ), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Retinai Medical AG (Bern, CH). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on April 28, 2022 after a review of 329 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Ophthalmic FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 892.2050 - 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.
