ABOUT OPHARMIC
Opharmic Technology (former Sonikure Technology) is a privately held medical technology company developing novel ocular drug delivery technology and devices. The company was founded in 2016 based on a patented ultrasound-mediated ocular drug delivery technology from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. With safety and feasibility well-demonstrated in pre-clinical studies, the technology non-invasively delivers large molecules to the posterior eye segment through the sclera. With the vision to replace invasive intravitreal injections, Opharmic is currently in preparation of two large-scale pre-clinical studies to streamline product development, and to validate additional technology applications.
