Eyeonic Information

Eyeonic is an Australian health tech company that revolutionises the way important eye diseases like glaucoma are detected. With Eyeonic’s technology, people can take an online cloud-based test for glaucoma on any computer; at the clinic, or from the comfort and convenience of their own home. Diagnostic accuracy is as good and in many cases better than the traditional in-clinic diagnostic tool, the machine-based visual field test. Eyeonic’s Online Visual Field Test, developed by glaucoma specialist, Associate Professor Simon Skalicky has been extensively scientifically evaluated, producing results in line with the traditional methods of testing. As a practicing ophthalmologist, Professor Skalicky saw firsthand, time and time again, the barriers caused by traditional visual field tests. Constant complaints from patients about how uncomfortable and unpleasant the test was combined with his own PhD research into online visual testing sparked the development of Eyeonic. Patients greatly prefer the experience of Eyeonic’s online visual field test vs conventional machine-based visual field testing . The online test is more accessible, more pleasant for the patient, more cost-effective, and provides patients with control of their own data to improve continuity of glaucoma care regardless of the doctor. Eyeonic is supported by outstanding global partners. Working with experts from Microsoft and supported by the MicrosoftForStartups program, Eyeonic leverages off all the possibilities of cloud computing together with a robust cyber security platform. Eyeonic’s robust research output has inspired Glaucoma researchers from around the world, with clinical trials underway in Uganda, Vietnam, New Zealand and centres in Sydney and Melbourne
