RetinaLogik – a Calgary-based company – announced it has successfully completed a $1.1 million funding round and has received Health Canada’s Class II medical device approval for its technology.
These milestones will advance the adoption of RetinaLogik’s VR-AI-powered platform, enabling eye care professionals to perform essential tests—including visual field exams—more efficiently while enhancing the patient experience with a portable headset.
This device, which is ISO-13485 and MDSAP Certified as well as FDA registered, is designed with patient comfort in mind, offering a streamlined testing process that significantly reduces both the time required for exams and the cost of equipment. And the RetinaLogik system can reduce upfront costs by up to 90% compared to traditional equipment. It also features multilingual support, helping to bridge communication gaps in the clinic.
With these milestones, RetinaLogik also reaffirmed its commitment to advancing high-quality vision screening and monitoring to provide more insights for specialists. And the company plans to expand adoption of its platform across North America and beyond, helping to close critical gaps in eye care.
By enabling earlier detection and treatment of vision-threatening conditions, RetinaLogik looks to prevent irreversible vision loss and improve patient outcomes.
