EYE-GO Secures Strategic Investment from Topcon Healthcare to Drive the Future of Connected Eye Care
COPENHAGEN, DENMARK & LA JOLLA, CA, USA — EYE-GO, a pioneering Danish MedTech company specializing in next-generation ophthalmic drug delivery, today announced a strategic investment from Topcon Healthcare, Inc., a global leader in robotic diagnostics and digital health solutions. This partnership aligns with Topcon Healthcare’s mission to improve access to high-quality eye care while reducing overall healthcare costs. The collaboration reflects a shared vision to revolutionize chronic eye disease management by integrating drug delivery, real-world adherence data, and diagnostic insights into a single, connected care pathway.
“We are thrilled to welcome Topcon Healthcare as a strategic investor and partner,” said Christian Stig Møller, Chairman of EYE-GO. “In Topcon Healthcare, we’ve found not only a leading force in eyecare technology, but also a visionary partner in the digital health space. This strategic partnership also strengthens the EYE-GO board of directors with the appointment of Ali Tafreshi, Topcon Healthcare, Inc. CEO & President, and Robert N. Weinreb, MD, Distinguished Professor of Ophthalmology, University of California, San Diego.”
This partnership will accelerate the development of the MistGo® Digital – a first-in-class microdosing drug delivery system combined with a digital adherence monitoring platform. The system reminds patients to administer their medication, verifies correct usage, and transmits real-time adherence data to clinicians. By combining precision drug delivery with intelligent monitoring, MistGo Digital closes the critical gap between prescription, administration, and compliance.
“MistGo Digital is a breakthrough in ophthalmic therapy—bridging the gap between prescription and practice,” said Henrik Nagel, CEO of EYE-GO. “Topcon Healthcare’s involvement validates our approach and brings strategic synergy that will help realize our vision of fully connected eye care – from diagnostics to ongoing therapy management.”
As a part of the collaboration, MistGo Digital will be integrated into Topcon Healthcare’s Harmony® digital health information platform. This integration will enable clinicians to link adherence and administration data with imaging results and disease progression, fostering earlier interventions and highly personalized care strategies.
“Digital technology is transforming eye care, and MistGo Digital represents a leap forward in how therapies are delivered and monitored,” said Ali Tafreshi, CEO of Topcon Healthcare, Inc. “EYE-GO’s innovation complements our vision of connected care pathways. Adding an intelligent therapeutic solution enhances the patient experience, improves outcomes, and supports a more data-driven future for eye care.”
This strategic partnership places both companies at the forefront of a growing movement toward connected health in eye care – where smart devices, data insights, and remote monitoring work together to optimize clinical care and elevate patient outcomes.
