Our Technology
Nine granted patents, five pending and one in draft.
Occuity's mission is to develop and bring to market affordable, handheld devices capable of measuring ocular parameters that presently require contacting ultrasound devices at the lower price range or expensive optical desktop models at the higher end. Following years of research we believe the nature and pricing of these new devices and our patented technology will prove disruptive to the current optometry market.

Optical technology
PM1
Pachymeter
Handheld optical non-contacting corneal thickness measurement
The first of Occuity's revolutionary optical handheld devices, the PM1 Pachymeter offers many advantages over existing ultrasound technology and allows for a non-clinical operator to take a corneal thickness measurement quickly and easily.
Our Ophthalmic Product Series
AX1
Biometer
Axial Length Measurement
for Myopia
The AX1 will build upon the novel optical technology utilised within the PM1 to enable full axial length measurement - all within a compact handheld device. Utilising a similar form factor to the PM1 will help Occuity accelerate the development of the AX1.
PM2
Multimeter
Includes Pupillometer and Keratometer
Following on from the PM1 and AX1, Occuity will look to add additional functionality to our technology platform. The PM2 will provide pachymetry alongside additional measurement sets which is likely to include pupillometry and keratometry.
A closer look at the PM1...
The PM1 - Occuity's handheld, non-contacting, optical pachymeter is set to replace existing contacting ultrasound devices.
The Occuity PM1 aims to make it easier, faster, and safer to measure corneal centre thickness in just a few seconds. Ideal for corneal, glaucoma and cataract clinics.
Simple to use, the PM1 is held in front of the subject’s eye at a comfortable working distance. Using our patented Precision Optical Systems technology, the PM1 scans at 100-120Hz a second. To take a measurement, the operator simply touches the screen to put the pachymeter in scanning mode and holds it up to the patient’s eye. The PM1 provides feedback to help the operator to position the device correctly. Once aligned the PM1 automatically captures 200 scans each second before immediately displaying the average of these measurements along with the standard deviation (variability) figure.
There is no risk of infection and no need to anaesthetise the eye, making the whole process much more comfortable for the operator and subject.

Ophthalmology and much more...
Occuity technology will be developed into a range of products to target markets worth an estimated £35+ billion per year.
At Occuity we have a clear vision to improve the lives of millions of people. Whilst our first products will focus on the ophthalmic market, our underlying technology promises so much more. We have a clear strategic pipeline of products to first provide an effective non-invasive solution for the screening for chronic diseases such as diabetes and ultimately to deliver a non-contacting glucose monitor. You can find out more about our pipeline of products on our Seedrs page.
What is Crowdfunding?
Crowdfunding is the term generally used to describe a person or company raising funds from a large number of people (the crowd). Crowdfunding has been fuelled by the growth of the internet, allowing people who previously could only reach small networks and sums of money to now reach much wider audiences and in turn raise more money.
What is Equity Crowdfunding?
Seedrs is an equity crowdfunding platform. This means that you will own equity (shares) in Occuity in return for your investment.
What are the Benefits of Equity Crowdfunding?
Equity crowdfunding allows you to buy into a business you believe in, and to therefore have a financial share of the rewards of any potential success of that business.
When investing in early-stage businesses, you should be aware that your capital is at risk.
If the business performs well, the value of your shares may rise. If you decide to sell your shares one day, you will profit from the increase in value on those shares.
Say, for example, a company called StarTech, is raising money via equity crowdfunding, and you wish to invest. StarTech prices its shares at £10 per share, and you invest £100. This means you buy 10 StarTech shares (£100/£10 = 10). Your investment was a savvy one and StarTech grows fast over the next 5 years, such that the company’s value increases tenfold. The 10 shares you bought for £100 are now worth £1000.
As with all investing, equity crowdfunding comes with risks that investors should be aware of, such as loss of capital, illiquidity, and dilution.

Why is Occuity Crowdfunding?
Occuity has an ambitious mission - to improve the lives of millions of people who currently have to endure regular, painful and invasive testing for conditions such as diabetes.
We're researching and developing a pain-free non-invasive solution, but this takes time and money due to the strict processes that must be followed to deliver a medical device.
Our Seedrs crowdfunding campaign has two great benefits.
-
It gives you the opportunity to help us accelerate the development of our technology by investing in things such as growing our team and running clinical trials of our products such as our non-invasive optical glucose monitor.
-
It's a great opportunity for you to join us on our journey by becoming a shareholder and being part of our future.
We know that our solution is needed, and comments from our diabetes community have backed this up.
If you would like to see our unique products come to market, you can support our work by becoming a shareholder and joining us on our mission to deliver social & commercial value.
