The Company
We are an advanced technology company breaking new ground and developing innovative solutions for the medical and ophthalmic industries worldwide. Our team consists of some of the leading engineers in the ophthalmic industry and has a track record of developing rapid solutions for commercial and research partners. The current global team comprises a mix of R&D engineering, Software engineering, sales, and management. We are a focused, dynamic, and highly motivated team that is making significant improvements to eye care technology throughout the US, UK and beyond.
Our products are unique to the industry and have the potential to transform it by offering two main benefits; one product will change how eye care is delivered, requiring fewer highly skilled opticians and removing the need for them to be in the same geography as the patient. Our other product improves both the quality and efficiency of laboratories producing prescription eye wear on a large scale.
