that impact a previously announced advisory committee meeting cannot 
always be published quickly enough to provide timely notice. Therefore, 
you should always check the Agency's website at <a href="https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/default.htm">https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/default.htm</a> and scroll down to the appropriate 
advisory committee meeting link, or call the advisory committee

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Agenda: The meeting presentations will be heard, viewed, captioned, 
and recorded through an online teleconferencing platform. On March 21, 
2024, the committee will discuss and make recommendations on 
information related to the De Novo request by Balance Ophthalmics, Inc. 
for the safety and effectiveness of the FSYX Ocular Pressure Adjusting 
Pump (FSYX OPAP) System. The FSYX OPAP System is indicated as 
adjunctive therapy for the reduction of intraocular pressure (IOP) 
during use in adult patients with open-angle glaucoma and IOP <=21 
mmHg.
    FDA intends to make background material available to the public no 
later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post 
the background material on its website prior to the meeting, the 
background material will be made publicly available on FDA's website at 
the time of the advisory committee meeting, and the background material 
will be posted on FDA's website after the meeting. Background material 
and the link to the online teleconference meeting room will be 
available at <a href="https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/Calendar/default.htm">https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/Calendar/default.htm</a>. Scroll down and select the appropriate advisory committee 
meeting link. The meeting will include slide presentations with audio 
components to allow the presentation of materials in a manner that most 
closely resembles an in-person advisory committee meeting.
    Procedure: Interested persons may present data, information, or 
views, orally or in writing, on issues pending before the committee. 
Written submissions may be made to the contact person on or before 
March 5, 2024. Oral presentations from the public will be scheduled on 
March 21, 2024, between approximately 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. Eastern Time. 
Those individuals interested in making formal oral presentations should 
notify the contact person (see FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT). The 
notification should include a brief statement of the general nature of 
the evidence or arguments they wish to present, the names and addresses 
of proposed participants, and an indication of the approximate time 
requested to make their presentation on or before February 26, 2024. 
Time allotted for each presentation may be limited. If the number of 
registrants requesting to speak is greater than can be reasonably 
accommodated during the scheduled open public hearing session, FDA may 
conduct a lottery to determine the speakers for the scheduled open 
public hearing session. The contact person will notify interested 
persons regarding their request to speak by February 27, 2024.
