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 meaning of ISO specific terms and expressions
related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles
in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information

Introduction
This International Standard 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 International Standard 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 International
Standard 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 International Standard, the national law or regulation is intended to be
followed and is intended to take precedence over the elements of this voluntary International Standard.
The manufacturer should provide more information to the contact lens professional upon request.
