Eyeonic is thrilled to announce the successful closure of our seed round, which was oversubscribed and exceeded our minimum raise target, securing a total of $2.6 million that was co-led by the Goodrich Group, Haines Consulting Group and Kirfield Private Wealth. This significant milestone marks a pivotal step in our journey to transform glaucoma screening through cutting-edge technology.
