Medical technology and diagnostics in the field of optics

Glasses are not just a fashion accessory, but part of a highly specialized medical system. With imaging techniques for retinal diagnostics, OTC screening solutions, and high-quality equipment for opticians, the industry also covers the medical technology sector. Eyetec and DAO are examples of companies that bring technology and practice together.

Accessories and complete solutions for opticians

In addition to eyeglasses themselves, the right accessories are also becoming increasingly important. From high-quality cases and cleaning stations to complete workshop equipment, companies such as Duggert and DAO provide comprehensive solutions for specialist stores. The focus is not only on functionality, but also on brand presentation and customer loyalty.
