Our Focus
Unmet Patient Needs
We are focused on giving healthcare providers cost-effective solutions to successfully address previously unmet patient needs:
Ophthalmic and optometric indications
It is estimated that the total economic burden of eye disorders and vision loss in the U.S. is $139 billion.1
Advanced wounds
A conservative estimate of the cost of caring for these wounds exceeds $50 billion per year in the U.S.2-5
Musculoskeletal applications
In 2011, the total indirect and direct costs for musculoskeletal disorders was estimated to be $874 billion, or 5.7 % of U.S. Gross Domestic Product.6
Non-opioid alternative to managing pain
The total economic burden of prescription opioid misuse in the U.S. is $78.5 billion annually with an estimated 128 people dying each day after overdosing on opioids.7
