Optovue is a privately held medical device company founded by Jay Wei in 2003 to develop the next generation of ophthalmic optical coherence tomography (OCT) instruments.

The company is dedicated to working with eye care professionals and clinical researchers to lead the development and commercialization of high-speed OCT and OCT angiography (OCTA), used to facilitate the visualization and management of eye diseases, many of which may lead to permanent blindness.

The Optovue team is composed of seasoned professionals experienced in design, development, production, marketing, and sales of ophthalmic devices. The company is assisted by a Scientific and Medical Advisory Board composed of leaders in advanced OCT technology and ocular disease treatment.

It was Jay Wei’s vision in the clinical use of OCT technology that resulted in the first FDA cleared Fourier-domain (spectral domain) OCT system, the RTVue®. The ultra-high speed, high resolution SD-OCT provides advanced ocular imaging capabilities that offer physicians significant benefits in helping to diagnose and manage patients suffering from macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma and other macular diseases, as well as anterior segment diseases.

The company expands the frontiers of OCT innovation and ophthalmic medical diagnostic imaging to improve the lives of patients.
