AdaptDx Pro, an OpZira product, makes portable ophthalmic equipment for measuring rod-mediated dark adaptation without requiring a darkroom. Its lightweight headset uses precision eye tracking and an onboard multilingual technician named Theia to guide tests that take less than 6.5 minutes. Backed by 20 years of clinical research, the device is intended to measure retinal adaptation time rather than diagnose a specific eye disease.
AI OpticsAI Optics develops portable retinal-imaging hardware and AI-based screening software that brings eye-disease screening into primary care, retail health, home-based care, and other point-of-care settings. Founded by an NYU-trained physician who saw the consequences of limited screening access, the company built its FDA-cleared Sentinel Camera from scratch and is developing Sentinel Pro to run disease-screening modules directly on the handheld device. The New York-based team combines medical-device engineering experience with expertise in optical systems, embedded devices, and AI algorithms.NEW YORK, NY
VectorVision Ocular Health (DBA: VectorVision)Founded by vision scientist David W. Evans, Ph.D., VectorVision makes standardized vision-testing instruments for measuring visual function in eye-care practices and clinical research. Based in Greenville, Ohio, the company has spent 30 years developing patented systems such as the CSV-1000, CSV-2000 and ESV-3000, which automatically control testing luminance for consistent results. Its equipment is used in more than 60 countries, 5,000 eye-care clinics and more than 50 FDA clinical trials.GREENVILLE, OH
LKC Technologies, IncFounded as LKC Systems in 1975, LKC Technologies develops visual electrophysiology equipment that measures retinal and visual-pathway function for clinical care and research. The Germantown company is best known for its RETeval handheld ERG/VEP device, introduced in 2013 and installed in more than 3,000 sites worldwide, along with its patented non-invasive Sensor Strip electrodes. LKC is an ISO 13485:2016 and MDSAP-certified, FDA-registered medical-device manufacturer.GAITHERSBURG, MD
Pharos Imaging, IncPharos Imaging is developing a compact optical coherence tomography platform designed to bring microscopic imaging out of specialist back rooms and into portable, everyday settings. Founded around a team led by co-founders Dr. David Rubaltelli and Dr. Xingchen Ji, the company is building a battery-powered, cloud-connected system that is smaller than a cell phone and intended to broaden access to OCT for home monitoring and screening.NEW YORK, NY
