ISO 11979-7:2006(E)
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.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
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.
ISO 11979-7 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 172, Optics and photonics, Subcommittee SC 7,
Ophthalmic optics and instruments.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 11979-7:2001), which has been technically
revised.
ISO 11979 consists of the following parts, under the general title Ophthalmic implants — Intraocular lenses:
⎯ Part 1: Vocabulary
⎯ Part 2: Optical properties and test methods
⎯ Part 3: Mechanical properties and test methods
⎯ Part 4: Labelling and information

6 General requirements
6.1 General
The general requirements for a clinical investigation given in ISO 14155-1 and the clinical investigation plan
requirements in ISO 14155-2 shall apply, with additional requirements given below.
6.2 Additional requirements
6.2.1 Design
A clinical investigation of an IOL model shall be designed in one of two ways:
a) as an uncontrolled study, in which case the results are compared to the adverse events and visual acuity
rates given in Annex B.
b) as a controlled study, with the provision that the statistical power to detect differences in the adverse
event rates and visual acuity is similar to the uncontrolled study. The control lens shall conform with
applicable parts of ISO 11979.
NOTE Annex A provides guidance for the design of a clinical investigation.
6.2.2 Variables
The following variables shall be considered:
⎯ best spectacle corrected visual acuity (BSCVA);
⎯ refraction;
⎯ intraocular pressure;
⎯ corneal status;
⎯ iritis;
⎯ IOL decentration;
⎯ IOL tilt;
⎯ IOL discoloration;
⎯ IOL opacity;
⎯ cystoid macular oedema;
⎯ hypopyon;
⎯ endophthalmitis;
⎯ pupillary block;
⎯ retinal detachment;
⎯ status of anterior and posterior capsule.
Additional variables can be studied in the clinical investigation to support specific claims.

ISO 11979-7:2006(E)
6.2.3 Other considerations
To minimize the risks associated with the clinical investigation of a new IOL, subject enrolment shall occur in
stages. The subject data from each stage shall be evaluated and found acceptable by the sponsor and the
coordinating investigator prior to the continuation of the clinical investigation. Guidance on phased enrolment
is included in Annex A.
Only the first eye of each subject shall be included in the primary statistical analysis.
Any plans for fellow eye implantation shall be described in the clinical investigation plan. Bilateral implantation
shall not be implemented until initial safety and effectiveness data have been collected, evaluated and
confirmed by the sponsor and principal investigators.
The review of data from at least 50 eyes with six months of follow-up is recommended. Previous clinical
experience, i.e. results from well-documented clinical investigations, may be adequate justification to begin
bilateral implantation earlier in the study.
The duration of the clinical investigation shall be one year for all posterior chamber IOLs, and 3 years for all
anterior chamber IOLs.
The clinical investigation plan shall contain descriptions of the surgical technique, the intraoperative use of
ophthalmic viscosurgical devices, and the use of preoperative, intra-operative and post-operative medications.
Any deviation shall be recorded on the case report forms.
The clinical investigation plan shall describe how subject visits and ophthalmic adverse events in between
reporting periods will be handled in the data analyses.
All subjects in a clinical investigation shall be monitored for the duration of the investigation. The clinical
investigation shall be considered completed when all subjects that have been enrolled in the investigation,
including subjects whose IOL was removed or replaced, have reached the final reporting period.
Serious ophthalmic adverse events and all adverse device effects shall be reported using a special case
report form and forwarded to the sponsor as required. All other ophthalmic adverse events shall be reported
using the standard visit case report forms and are collected during monitoring.

ISO 11979-7:2006(E)
Annex A
(informative)

Elements of a clinical investigation
A.1 General
The following are elements of a clinical investigation plan which can assist in collecting data for the purpose of
determining the safety and performance of IOLs.
NOTE This annex reflects the experience with clinical investigations of IOLs in the USA.
A.2 Number of subjects
The clinical investigation includes a minimum of 300 subjects when the results are compared to the safety and
performance endpoints in Annex B. In the case of a study with a concurrent control group, calculate the
number of subjects sufficient to detect differences in the safety and performance endpoints in Annex B with
similar statistical power to the study mentioned above. Any additional claims, beyond those for safety and
performance, require calculation of a sample size for that purpose.
To take into account that some subjects are lost during the course of the clinical investigation (including
deceased subjects and subjects who have the IOL explanted), enrol about:
a) 390 subjects in the one-year investigation;
b) 500 subjects in the three-year investigation.
Significantly larger numbers of subjects are not to be enrolled in order to minimize exposure to the risks of a
new IOL.
To assist in achieving a balance in the number of subjects from each investigator, each surgeon contributes a
minimum of 20 subjects, but no more than 25 % of the subjects in the investigation.
If the risk analysis determines that a limited clinical investigation is sufficient (see ISO/TR 22979), then enrol
125 subjects.
A.3 Phased enrolment
To minimize the potential risks, the clinical investigation consists of two phases as follows.
a) Phase 1:
A maximum of 100 subjects are included. After at least 50 of those have reached case report Form 4,
their data are evaluated. If the results are acceptable, the next phase can begin.
b) Phase 2:
The remainder of the subjects are included.

ISO 11979-7:2006(E)
A.4 Reporting periods
The time frames for the reporting periods are defined below:
a) Case report Form 0: pre-operative/operative reporting;
b) Case report Form 1: post-operative reporting 1 d or 2 d post-operatively;
c) Case report Form 2: post-operative reporting 7 d to 14 d post-operatively;
d) Case report Form 3: post-operative reporting 30 d to 60 d post-operatively;
e) Case report Form 4: post-operative reporting 120 d to 180 d post-operatively;
f) Case report Form 5: post-operative reporting 330 d to 420 d post-operatively;
g) Case report Form 6: post-operative reporting 630 d to 780 d post-operatively;
h) Case report Form 7: post-operative reporting 990 d to 1 140 d post-operatively.
The minimum number of completed case report forms for each reporting period is 300.
A.5 Standardization of the clinical evaluation
Define criteria for evaluation of all studied variables. Define testing conditions for all measurements. Before
commencing the investigation instruct and train all investigators to use these, in order to obtain data that can
be combined for the purpose of statistical analysis.
A.6 Data analysis
Consider the following analyses:
a) VA stratified by age;
b) best-case VA;
c) VA stratified by adverse event;
d) VA stratified by pre-operative ocular pathology;
e) VA stratified by investigator;
f) subject-by-subject analysis of reasons why subject failed to achieve 0,5 (6/12; 20/40) VA;
g) rate of visual acuity decrease of 10 letters or more on an early treatment of diabetic retinopathy study
(EDTRS) chart (or equivalent) between a form evaluation and a later form evaluation with the cause of
the visual acuity decrease described in each case;
h) rates of cumulative adverse events stratified by age;
i) rates of persistent adverse events stratified by age;
j) adverse event stratified by investigator.

ISO 11979-7:2006(E)
Depending upon the clinical investigation, the total number of subjects is not necessarily the total number of
eyes. For the purposes of this guidance, it is assumed that treatment is unilateral and that the total number of
subjects is equivalent to the total number of eyes.
To minimize the uncertainty in the data, the lost-to-follow-up subjects in the three-year investigation should be
less than 30 % and the lost-to-follow-up in one-year investigation should be less than 10 %.
A.8 Clinical case report forms
The next pages provide examples of the following case report forms:
a) pre-operative/operative case report form — posterior chamber lenses (Table A.2);
b) post-operative case report form — posterior chamber lenses (Table A.3);
c) pre-operative/operative case report form — anterior chamber lenses (Table A.4);
