On a technical level, the financing will support the development and market access of Norlase’s innovative portable ophthalmic lasers, designed to diagnose and treat causes of vision loss and blindness. The initiative focuses on advancing novel ophthalmic laser technologies and expanding production facilities to support increased demand.
The company recently launched LYNX, an ophthalmic laser device which the company said can reduce treatment time by more than 50%. Norlase was awarded a 2025 PRISM Award for the device, following another win in 2021 for its LION device. The company received nominations in 2020 for its LEAF product and in 2023 for ECHO.
