OPHARMIC TECHNOLOGY

​OUR TECHNOLOGY
Opharmic specializes in the development of ultrasound-mediated technologies and devices for non-invasive ocular drug delivery for a variety of eye diseases and conditions.

Mechanism - Acoustic Micro-streaming

During ultrasound radiation, cavities would respond to the fundamental driving frequency in form of periodic oscillations. Micro-stream flows are generated as a result of the periodic oscillations of the cavities.

​With Opharmic's proprietary ultrasound technology, delivery of drugs into the eye can be optimized by precisely controlling the micro-stream flow.

On the cellular level, it is known that cellular membranes are intrinsically capable of receiving and responding to mechanical stimuli.

​​Our ultrasound technology can be precisely engineered to stimulate the cellular transport activities and to modulate the barrier properties of the eye tissue or enhanced drug uptake.
