K930566 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the OPHTHALMIC FRAMES W/DEMO LENSES & CLIP ON SUNGLASS. Classified as Frame, Spectacle (product code HQZ), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by E.B. Brown Opticians (Cleveland, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on February 16, 1994 after a review of 378 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Ophthalmic FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 886.5842 - 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.
