The challenge
A glaucoma drainage implant has to be tiny, reliable, biocompatible and manufacturable to clinical standards - while the surrounding intellectual property is protected from the outset.
What we did
- 01
Concept development and rapid prototyping
Iterating the device design toward something that could be made repeatably at the required scale.
- 02
IP protection
Built into the development process from the start.
- 03
Pre-clinical and clinical device production
Assembly and sterilisation of devices to the standard required for trials.
