2013: Capricorn Healthtech Fund I
Implants for patients with glaucoma
iSTAR Medical aims to improve the lives of patients suffering from eye diseases by developing innovative minimally invasive ophthalmic implants made from STAR® Biomaterial.
It is estimated that globally about 80 million, mainly elderly people, suffer from glaucoma. Glaucoma is the second-leading cause of blindness and often a result of lack of therapy compliance. Funding innovations that reduce the therapy burden on patients lies at the heart of the fund’s strategy.
