Glaukos Corporation is an ophthalmic medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of breakthrough products and procedures to transform the treatment of glaucoma, one of the world`s leading causes of blindness. Glaukos has pioneered Micro-Invasive Glaucoma Surgery, or MIGS, to revolutionize the traditional glaucoma treatment and management paradigm. The company launched the iStent Trabecular Micro-Bypass Stent, its first MIGS device, in the United States in 2012. Glaukos is leveraging its platform technology to build a comprehensive and proprietary portfolio of injectable micro-scale therapies designed to address the complete range of glaucoma disease states and progression. Glaukos believes the iStent is the smallest medical device ever approved by the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, measuring 1.0 mm long and 0.33 mm wide. In June 2015, the company completed an initial public offering and its shares are now traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "GKOS". Founded in 1998, Glaukos is based in San Clemente, California.

eSight empowers the low vision community and advocates to #SeeNewPossibilities for people with macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and 50+ other conditions that cause vision loss. Founded by electrical engineer, Conrad Lewis, who wanted to help his two legally blind sisters see, eSight has since grown to become the leading sight enhancement platform led by an executive team with the vision to do more. After seven years of research and development, the first eSight Eyewear prototype was released in 2013. Since then, the vision-enhancing electronic technology has changed the lives of thousands of people living with visual impairments and legal blindness by allowing them to retain their independence and achieve greater visual acuity at home, school, work, and play. Soon after the release of eSight 3, Time Magazine named eSight in its list of “The 25 Best Inventions in 2017” and Buzzfeed featured the device on its roster of “6 Inventions Changing British People`s Lives In 2017”. Following eSight 3, the team continued to develop its technology and, in 2020, launched its latest model — eSight 4. It was thoughtfully crafted to be wireless and hands-free allowing users to retain their mobility as well as be lightweight and streamlined for all-day comfort. The eSight 4 was later recognized as the “Best Wearable/Healthcare Hardware/Software of 2021” by the Tech Ascension Awards, which honors companies that possess the most innovative technology in their respective industry.
