Ophthalmic optics - Contact lenses and contact lens care products - Requirements and guidance for clinical investigations (ISO/FDIS 11980:2025)

ISO 11980:2012 gives guidelines for the clinical investigation of the safety and performance of contact lenses and contact lens care products.

Augenoptik - Kontaktlinsen und Kontaktlinsenpflegemittel - Leitfaden für die klinische Prüfung (ISO/FDIS 11980:2025)

Dieses Dokument stellt Anforderungen und Leitlinien für die klinische Prüfung (CI; en: clinical investigation) zum Nachweis der Sicherheit und Leistungsfähigkeit von Kontaktlinsen und Kontaktlinsenpflegemitteln bereit.
ANMERKUNG 1   In diesem Dokument wird versucht, die allgemein anerkannten regulatorischen Anforderungen zur Durchführung einer klinischen Prüfung zu vereinbaren, die zur Erfüllung von Marktzulassungsvoraussetzungen und Kennzeichnungspflichten von Kontaktlinsen und Kontaktlinsenpflegemitteln weltweit erforderlich sind. Allerdings sind die nationalen Anforderungen sehr unterschiedlich. Wo nationale Praxis oder Verordnungen eine rechtliche Anforderung vorschreiben, hat die Rechtsvorschrift Vorrang vor diesem Dokument.
ANMERKUNG 2   Für Indikationen, die über die Korrektion von Refraktionsfehlern hinausgehen, sind zusätzliche Betrachtungen bezüglich Sicherheit und Leistungsfähigkeit in den klinischen Prüfplan (CIP, en: clinical investigation plan) aufzunehmen.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee
has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely
with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types
of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the
ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent
rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO had not received notice of (a)
patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that
this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at
www.iso.org/patents. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

Introduction
Currently, contact lenses and contact lens care products are regulated in different ways in different countries.
This International Standard has been developed to encourage global alignment. Widespread adoption of
this International Standard can represent yet another step toward universal recognition. This International
Standard can also be used as a basis to fulfil design elements of ISO 9001 and/ or (EN) ISO 13485 as well as
related national laws.

Ophthalmic optics — Contact lenses and contact lens care
products — Guidance for clinical investigations
1 Scope
This document gives guidelines for the clinical investigation (CI) to establish the safety and performance of
contact lenses and contact lens care products.
NOTE 1 This document attempts to align the recognised regulatory requirements for the conduct of a CI to meet the
marketing and labelling requirements for contact lenses and contact lens care products around the world. However,
national requirements vary greatly. Wherever national practice or regulations dictate some legal requirement, this
requirement takes precedence over this document.
NOTE 2 For indications beyond correction of refractive error, additional considerations for safety and performance
should be included in the clinical investigation plan (CIP).
2 Normative references

4.2 Additional requirements
4.2.1 Study design
4.2.1.1 General
a) The inclusion criteria for participant selection shall relate to the study objectives and should include:
1) participants with eyes appropriate for the study being conducted;
2) participants of appropriate age for the study being conducted (age range to be specified);
3) participants requiring lens powers within the range available for the study lenses;
4) the manifest cylinder less than or equal to 1,00 D (for a study with only spherical power correcting
soft lenses. For rigid contact lenses, the suitable manifest cylinder may be higher and shall be
defined in the inclusion criteria);
5) best spectacle corrected visual acuity greater than or equal to 20/25 (less than or equal to
LogMAR 0,1).
b) The exclusion criteria for participant selection shall relate to the study objectives and should include,
but not be limited to:
1) anterior segment infection, inflammation or abnormality;
2) any active anterior segment ocular disease that would contraindicate contact lens wear;
3) the use of systemic or ocular medications that would contraindicate contact lens wear;
4) history of herpetic keratitis;
5) history of refractive surgery or irregular cornea (except when the contact lens or contact lens care
product under investigation is indicated for ocular conditions such as irregular cornea, keratoconus
or refractive surgery);
6) slit lamp findings that are more serious than gr
