About Us
Our Mission: Addressing an Unmet Need
Cataract surgery is the most routinely performed surgery in the world with approximately 32 million procedures expected to be performed this year.1 Up to 20% of patients who need cataract surgery also have glaucoma or ocular hypertension.2 However, even though cataract surgery provides an optimal window for glaucoma treatment, it has not become a routine consideration for cataract patients.
At Elios Vision, we see an opportunity to address one of the most common causes of blindness in the world during the most commonly performed surgical procedure in the world. Our goal is to make combining cataract and glaucoma treatment the new standard of care.
Elios Vision Medical Advisory Board
Our medical advisory board is composed of well-respected surgeons who are active in glaucoma care and management and in researching this disease to discover the best treatments.
