Presenting clinical solid results at the highly regarded American Glaucoma Society 2023 meeting, Smartlens has demonstrated the effectiveness of miLens in revolutionizing glaucoma diagnosis and treatment. With plans to commercialize miLens in 2024, Smartlens is poised to make a lasting impact on the lives of countless individuals affected by glaucoma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the core of miLens is Smartlens’ proprietary, electronics-free sensor technology, protected by a robust portfolio of patents spanning over 40 countries. This groundbreaking technology sets Smartlens apart in the industry, ensuring its position as a leader in glaucoma innovation. In addition, Smartlens is proud to own THERmic, an advanced non-invasive drug delivery technology that not only helps prevent disease progression but also enhances treatment effectiveness by offering personalized therapies for individual patients. This breakthrough paves the way for a new generation of medicines that address the complexities of glaucoma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
