A new artificial intelligence (AI)-based platform of solutions designed exclusively for the ophthalmology and optometry fields has officially launched.
The name: Oculogyx.
Its purpose: To assist eyecare professionals (ECPs) in the clinical decision-making process.
When: This new technology made its debut last week at the 2025 Vision Expo East in Orlando, Florida.
First, a rundown on Oculogyx.
Founded in 2023 and headquartered in La Jolla, California, the medical practices company has utilized AI in developing a suite of tools designed specifically for ophthalmology and optometry clinical practices—and based on clinician feedback.
- To note: Oculogyx’s founder, David Schanzlin, MD, is a board-certified ophthalmologist known as “one of the nation’s foremost LASIK and vision correction surgeons” with 40+ years of experience in corneal surgery and refractive procedures.
The Oculogyx mission: To use these AI-based technologies for advancing practice efficiency, compliance, and revenue; enhancing patients’ experience; and supporting ECPs’ academic careers.
