A Melbourne-based startup that uses artificial intelligence to enable home glaucoma testing on laptop or tablet screens has finalised its oversubscribed $2.6 million seed round raise.
Eyeonic aims to transform glaucoma screening through cutting-edge technology. Its AI-enabled online visual glaucoma testing delivers diagnostic capability on any computer or tablet, eliminating the need for specialised machines and personnel.
Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness globally, and early detection is vital to prevent vision loss. Eyeonic’s technology ensures that more patients can be screened accurately and conveniently, advancing medical diagnostics and improving patient outcomes.
Founded by associate professor Simon Skalicky, Eyenonic’s tech enhances accessibility and affordability, particularly benefiting underserved regions where traditional diagnostic tools are scarce.
