ISO 18369-18 Contact Lens Protein Deposition Resistance Testing
The ISO 18369 series of standards is specifically designed to assess the protein deposition resistance (PDR) properties of contact lenses. This service ensures that medical devices, particularly ophthalmic devices like contact lenses, meet stringent quality and safety requirements set by international standards.
The testing procedure outlined in ISO 18369-1 to ISO 18369-4 provides a comprehensive framework for evaluating the performance of contact lenses under various conditions. This service is particularly critical for ensuring that medical devices are safe and effective, thereby protecting public health.
The test involves exposing contact lenses to artificial tear solutions under controlled environmental conditions. The objective is to determine how effectively the lens resists protein accumulation over time. Protein deposition can lead to discomfort, reduced vision clarity, and other adverse effects on the wearer's ocular health. By adhering strictly to ISO 18369-18, we ensure that our clients' products meet global standards for safety and efficacy.
The testing process begins with selecting appropriate contact lenses based on their intended use. Specimens are then prepared according to the specified methods in the standard. Once prepared, they undergo exposure to artificial tear solutions designed to mimic real-world conditions. The duration of this exposure varies depending on the specific requirements outlined in ISO 18369-18.
Following the exposure period, the lenses are analyzed for changes in protein content using analytical techniques such as spectrophotometry or fluorimetry. These methods provide precise measurements of protein accumulation, allowing for accurate assessment of the lens's PDR properties. The results are then compared against established acceptance criteria to determine compliance with ISO 18369-18.
This service is essential for quality managers and R&D engineers who need to ensure that their products meet stringent international standards. Compliance officers also benefit from this testing as it provides them with objective data to support regulatory submissions. For procurement teams, it ensures that the materials they select are of high quality, reducing risks associated with non-compliant products.
