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).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation on the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 172, Optics and photonics, Subcommittee
SC 7, Ophthalmic optics and instruments.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 11978:2014), of which it constitutes a
minor revision.
The following change has been done:
In 4.1, paragraph 3
“All symbols and written information shall be legible under an illumination of 215 lx with visual acuity
of 20/30 (Visus 0,67).”
has been replaced with
“All symbols and written information shall be a minimum of 0,7 mm in height and be legible at a reading
distance of 30 cm under the illumination of 215 lx, except for Trademarks and any manufacturing part
numbers.”

Introduction
This document attempts to harmonize requirements, whenever possible, for labelling of contact lenses
and contact lens care products with national laws, regulations, or guidelines that might exist in countries
throughout the world. Where national laws and labelling requirements exist in countries for medical
devices, they are often developed by legislative bodies or regulatory authorities independently from
the development process for International Standards. Therefore, labelling requirements established by
an individual country cannot always be readily integrated into International Standards.
The information given in this document provides a suitable framework for developing labelling for
contact lenses and contact lens care products. Conformance to the elements herein is intended to be
sufficient for developing appropriate labelling for countries without existing laws or regulations
for medical device labelling. However, conformance with the elements of this document might not
be sufficient for full compliance with additional labelling requirements mandated by an individual
country. Where national laws or regulations mandate additional labelling requirements or conflict with
elements of this document, the national law or regulation is intended to be followed and is intended to
take precedence over the elements of this voluntary document.
The manufacturer should provide more information to the contact lens professional upon request.
