SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On

February 28, 1994, Pharmacia, Inc.,

Dublin, OH 43017, submitted to CDRH

an application for premarket approval of

Model WS–100 Pliolens ultravioletabsorbing silicone posterior chamber

intraocular lens. The device is a

posterior chamber intraocular lens and

is indicated for primary implantation for

the visual correction of aphakia in

persons 60 years of age or older in

whom a cataractous lens has been

removed by extracapsular cataract

extraction.

In accordance with the provisions of

section 515(c)(2) of the act (21 U.S.C.

360e(c)(2)) as amended by the Safe

Medical Devices Act of 1990, this

premarket approval application (PMA)

was not referred to the Ophthalmic

Devices Panel of the Medical Devices

Advisory Committee, an FDA advisory

committee, for review and

recommendation because the

information in the PMA substantially

duplicates information previously

reviewed by this panel. On July 20,

1995, CDRH approved the application

by a letter to the applicant from the

Director of the Office of Device

Evaluation, CDRH.

A summary of the safety and

effectiveness data on which CDRH

based its approval is on file in the

Dockets Management Branch (address

above) and is available from that office

upon written request. Requests should

be identified with the name of the

device and the docket number found in

brackets in the heading of this

document.

Opportunity for Administrative Review

Section 515(d)(3) of the act authorizes

any interested person to petition, under

section 515(g) of the act, for

administrative review of CDRH’s

decision to approve this application. A

petitioner may request either a formal

hearing under part 12 (21 CFR part 12)

of FDA’s administrative practices and

procedures regulations or a review of

the application and CDRH’s action by an

independent advisory committee of

experts. A petition is to be in the form

of a petition for reconsideration under

§ 10.33(b) (21 CFR 10.33(b)). A

petitioner shall identify the form of

review requested (hearing or

independent advisory committee) and

shall submit with the petition

supporting data and information

showing that there is a genuine and

substantial issue of material fact for

resolution through administrative

review. After reviewing the petition,

FDA will decide whether to grant or

deny the petition and will publish a

notice of its decision in the Federal

Register. If FDA grants the petition, the

notice will state the issue to be

reviewed, the form of the review to be

used, the persons who may participate

in the review, the time and place where

the review will occur, and other details.

Petitioners may, at any time on or

before January 18, 1996, file with the

Dockets Management Branch (address

above) two copies of each petition and

supporting data and information,

identified with the name of the device

and the docket number found in

brackets in the heading of this

document. Received petitions may be

seen in the office above between 9 a.m.

and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
