Eyewear Industry Specifics: US FDA Class I UDI 

Ask About Requirements and Exceptions

Recorded: Tuesday, August 23, 2022   11:00am EDT

Learn eyewear industry specifics about UDI submissions for the US FDA Class I Deadline 

After two delays, the Unique Device Identification (UDI) GUDID submission deadline is now a few months away with a deadline of December 8, 2022. 

FDA published a Final Guidance concerning Class I medical devices on July 22.

Specific to eyewear, the Vision Council leadership has identified 4 key takeaways from the Final Guidance that members should be aware of.  

• Plano sunglasses and OTC readers must fully comply with UDI labeling and GUDID reporting.
• Because spectacle frames do not have lenses that require impact-resistant testing, they are not 'restricted devices'. As such they are exempt from GUDID reporting per the guidance document as consumer health products. 
• The Vision Council is awaiting final decision on whether spectacle frames are completely exempt from UDI labeling, as that exception request is still pending. 
• The new UDI compliance date is December 8, 2022, for GUDID reporting.

If you are unsure if this applies to your products, join us for a walk-through of the US FDA Class I medical device UDI requirements, exceptions, and use cases. We will share key lessons learned from previous device class UDI implementations. 

In this webinar, we will cover the following subjects:

• UDI definition and goals
• FDA UDI Requirements
• Label Data vs. GUDID submission data
• FDA GUDID Compliance: Submission/Maintenance
• How Reed Tech can help

Bring your questions. We will also provide a table of the required data attributes and other key takeaways in the slides. Get started now! UDI preparation can be complex and time-consuming without subject-matter expertise.
