Overview
Smartlens is a clinical-stage company with its portfolio of innovative technologies for diagnosing and treating glaucoma, a chronic eye disease that ranks as the leading cause of irreversible blindness. The Company's flagship product, miLens, is an innovative, non-invasive, contact lens-based device capable of monitoring intraocular pressure--the primary and only treatable risk factor for glaucoma. This addresses a significant unmet need that has persisted since the 1950s.
