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 of 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
www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 172, Optics and photonics, Subcommittee
SC 7, Ophthalmic optics and instruments, in collaboration with the European Committee for
Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 170, Ophthalmic optics, in accordance with the
Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 15798:2013 and its Amendment,
ISO 15798:2013/Amd.1:2017), which has been technically revised.The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
a) Inclusion of applicable sections from ISO 14630 throughout the document, but removal of any
reference to that standard. It was further clarified that ophthalmic viscosurgical devices (OVD) are
no implant by their intended use but are likely to share some of the risks related to non-active
implants. Therefore, the following clauses and subclauses have been revised: Clauses 4 and 5, 6.1,
6.2.1, Clause 7. A new subclause 5.4 has been added.b) minor clarifications in Clause 3 (3.3, 3.4) and addition of term surgical invasive medical device;
c) clarification in Clause 4 that a recommended removal procedure shall enable removal of the OVD as
completely as possible;d) revised wording in 5.2 to align with defined terminology from Clause 3;
e) revised note in 5.3.2: narrowed recommended measuring range;
f) revised note in 5.3.8: more accurate description of the risk;
g) clarification that control OVD for the intraocular implantation test and the clinical investigation
shall be the same in both studies; therefore, the following subclauses have been revised: 6.1, 6.2.5,
6.3.2, and Annex A;h) revised wording in 6.2.2 of this document to include ISO 15798:2013/Amd.1:2017 and guidance on
standard LAL-test;© ISO 2022 – All rights reserved
---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------

ISO 15798:2022(E)
i) revised wording in 6.2.3 to address the potential risk of interaction of the OVD with fluorescence or
radioisotope labelling;j) revised 6.3 to clarify requirement of a clinical evaluation, clarification of the clinical investigation
protocol, revision of the clinical investigation design, and additional standardization for evaluation
and reporting of result from the clinical investigation;k) inclusion of reference to ISO 10993-7 for acceptable levels of ethylene oxide and ethylene
chlorohydrin in Clause 7;l) packaging integrity has been specifically included into the scope of product stability Clause 8; in
addition, reference to ISO 14971 has been included into this clause;m) “Do not use if sterile barrier is breached” has been aligned with the recommended wording from
ISO 15223-1 “Do not use if package is damaged”; in addition, molecular mass distribution has been
removed from the list of information to be supplied by the manufacturer in Table 1;
n) major revision of Annex A;o) correction of a typo in the formula for calculating the minimum number of evaluable patients per
treatment group in Annex B.p) Addition of new informative Annex C on analyses of OVD clinical data.

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 of 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 www .iso .org/
iso/ foreword .html.This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 172, Optics and photonics, Subcommittee
SC 7, Ophthalmic optics and instruments.This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 15798:2013 and its Amendment,
ISO 15798:2013/Amd.1:2017), which has been technically revised.The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
a) Inclusion of applicable sections from ISO 14630 throughout the document, but removal of any
reference to that standard. It was further clarified that OVDs are no implant by their intended use but
are likely to share some of the risks related to non-active implants. Therefore, the following clauses
and sub-clauses have been revised: 4, 5, 6.1, 6.2.1, 7. A new sub-clause 5.4 Usability has been added.
b) minor clarifications in clause 3 Terms and definitions (3.3, 3.4) and addition of term surgical invasive
medical device;c) clarification in clause 4 that a recommended removal procedure shall enable removal of the OVD as
completely as possible;d) revised wording in sub-clause 5.2 to align with defined terminology from clause 3;
e) revised note in sub-clause 5.3.2: narrowed recommended measuring range;f) revised note in sub-clause 5.3.8: more accurate description of the risk;
g) clarification that control OVD for the intraocular implantation test and the clinical investigation
shall be the same in both studies; therefore, the following sub-clauses have been revised: 6.1, 6.2.5,
6.3.2, and Annex A;h) revised wording in sub-clause 6.2.2 to include ISO 15798:2013/Amd.1:2017 and guidance on
standard LAL-test;iv © ISO 2020 – All rights reserved

i) revised wording in sub-clause 6.2.3 to address the potential risk of interaction of the OVD with
fluorescence or radioisotope labelling;j) revised sub-clause 6.3 to clarify requirement of a clinical evaluation, clarification of the clinical
investigation protocol, revision of the clinical investigation design, and additional standardization
for evaluation and reporting of result from the clinical investigation;k) inclusion of reference to ISO 10993-7 for acceptable levels of ethylene oxide and ethylene
chlorohydrin in clause 7;l) packaging integrity has been specifically included into the scope of product stability; in addition,
reference to ISO 14971 has been included into this section;m) “Do not use if sterile barrier is breached” has been aligned with the recommended wording from
ISO 15223-1 “Do not use if package is damaged”; in addition, molecular mass distribution has been
removed from the list of information to be supplied by the manufacturer;n) major revision of Annex A;
o) correction of a typo in the formula for calculating the minimum number of evaluable patients per
treatment group in Annex B.Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A

OVDs are surgically invasive medical devices. They must be compatible with the internal ocular
environment. Intended performance is primarily provided for by their viscous and/or viscoelastic
properties, which are designed to create and maintain space, to protect intraocular tissues and to
manipulate tissues during surgery in the anterior segment of the human eye. OVDs are used intra-
operatively and intended to be removed at the end of surgery. The manufacturer shall describe any
performance characteristic to be provided for by the OVD. In addition, the manufacturer shall
particularly describe the intended way of application, the performance in protecting the corneal
endothelium, the intended time that the OVD resides in the anterior chamber of the eye, and the method
for removal, whereas this method shall enable removal of the OVD as completely as possible.
In addition, the manufacturer shall describe and document the functional characteristics of the OVD in
terms of itsa) chemical composition;
b) rheological properties.
5 Design attributes
5.1 General
The following subclauses of this section are listing specific design attributes to be met for the intended
performance. Tests described therein are intended to apply when qualifying materials but not
necessarily apply as a routine quality assurance/control programme.A risk assessment shall be performed in accordance with ISO 14971. OVD design attributes shall be
documented. Where any of the design attributes is not considered to be relevant, the reason shall be
documented and justified.5.2 Characterization of the components
The manufacturer shall provide a description of the rheologically active component(s).
The manufacturer shall provide a description of each compound belonging to the rheologically active
component(s).The raw materials used in the manufacture of the product shall be listed qualitatively, along with their
quality specifications. These shall comply with recognized compendial standards wherever possible.
If the rheologically active component or one of its compounds is derived from animal sources, the
requirements of ISO 22442-1, ISO 22442-2, and ISO 22442-3 shall apply.If the rheologically active component is a synthetic polymer, the repeating subunits that comprise it
shall be chemically identified and the linkages between them described. Any cross linking shall also be
described.The purity of water used shall be water for injection.

5.3 Characterization of the finished product
5.3.1 General
All testing requirements described in 5.3.2 to 5.3.12 shall be performed with the finished, sterilized
product. The rheological and optical properties of OVDs are physical characteristics that determine
their performance in ophthalmic surgery. It is therefore imperative that the physical properties of OVDs
identified below are fully and accurately described. The rheological properties shall be measured under
the conditions expected and relevant at the time of use and be reported.5.3.2 Absolute complex viscosity
The logarithm of the absolute complex viscosity versus the logarithm of the oscillation frequency
shall be graphed to simultaneously demonstrate the resistance to flow and deformation of the OVD
formulation. At very low frequencies the absolute complex viscosity approaches the zero shear viscosity.
NOTE Complex viscosity should, if possible, be determined at frequencies between (0,01 to 100) Hz (s ). For
products of very high viscosity (>2 × 10 Pa·s), frequencies below 0,01 Hz will be required to show the zero shear
viscosity.5.3.3 Chemical and biological contaminants
All chemical or biological contaminants shall be identified, and their potential ocular hazard shall be
determined by risk analysis. For raw materials of biological origin, these contaminants can include
proteins, nucleic acids, viruses and other transmissible agents (unclassified pathogenic entities, prions
and similar entities, or other biological materials. Contaminants derived from the source materials or
from the manufacturing process (including sterilization), e.g. cross-linking agents and antioxidants,
shall be identified whenever possible, and their concentrations in the finished product shall be reported.
Assessment of contaminants shall consider degradation characteristics of active component, including
interactions with laser light, ultrasound energy, or other high energy sources likely to be used along
with the OVD during surgery, and leachables/extractables from the primary container.
Contaminants shall be determined using standard analytical methods, when available, and all methods
shall be described. Limits for identified conta...
