Advances in intraocular lenses have made it possible for phakic intraocular lenses (PIOLs) to compete at some level with refractive surgery. Further advances in materials and implant technologies are making it possible to achieve clear vision at multiple focal points with multifocal and accommodating lenses. Innovations in this segment have created significant opportunities for new [...]

We analyze medical device markets and, by natural extention, markets encompassing devices or simply competing with them. We identify a specific disease or disorder, characterize its patient population, current and emerging trends in treatment and then characterize the markets for the products used. We may alternatively focus on an organ system (e.g., ophthalmology or a [...]
It has already been said that medical technology is getting complicated. Now it’s time to point out that the world is getting strikingly small(er).
Even the youngest startup has to consider market opportunity on a global scale. So a little medtech startup with not much more than a patent (and sometimes not even that) and with [...]
