Healthcare, AI
The company is a startup with a unique value proposition in the vision care market. The eye care market is defined by optometrists and ophthalmologists who routinely work together to deliver patient care. The vision space is image heavy and relies on visual data. As a result, it is imperative to capture, store and transfer patient data securely and in a way that it can be shared easily amongst the service providers. However, today, most providers do not have the proper tools to share data or the insights learned through data with their fellow care givers. As a result tests have to be repeated and care is often delayed. IDL worked with the founding team to create a blueprint on how these inefficiencies could be eliminated.
IDL incubated the company from day one and partnered up with both ophthalmologists and optometrist practices to understand how they captured, stored, utilized and shared patient data. We brought in expertise from both the medical providers and software engineers to architect a solution that can cater to the needs of various participants in the value chain.
The company is in stealth mode and IDL serves as an operational partner to the management, helping create strategic partnerships with ophthalmic equipment manufacturers, pharmaceutical and drug companies and potential investors.
