About Eyoto
Eyoto is a company specializing in the optical industry, developing and manufacturing image-capture and measurement instruments. The company offers a suite of products, including the eMap, a lens mapping and quality control platform, and remote refraction and tele-optometry systems. Its technology aims to make eye care more accessible through remote consultations and provides tools for opticians and lens manufacturers to improve accuracy and efficiency.
The company originated from research conducted at Aston University's School of Optometry. It was founded in 2013 and is led by CEO Carl D. Francis. Eyoto's business model involves selling its hardware and software solutions to a range of clients, including independent opticians, large optical chains, and lens manufacturers. The systems are designed to integrate with existing optical equipment and management systems, allowing for a seamless transition to digital and remote services.
The core of Eyoto's offering is its remote refraction technology, which enables optometrists to conduct eye exams from a distance, and its lens analysis tools that provide detailed measurements of spectacle lenses. These products are intended to enhance practice efficiency, reduce patient waiting times, and provide a higher level of data and analysis for lens verification.
