PLU Ophthalmic

Empowering Glaucoma Surgeons With Innovative Tools & Solutions.

Co-founded by a team of experts in glaucoma surgery, medical device innovation, and healthcare strategy, we are rethinking the way glaucoma is treated. Our solutions combine the best of both worlds—efficacy and safety—eliminating the need for surgeons to compromise.

For too long, glaucoma surgeons have had to choose between traditional surgeries, which are highly effective but carry significant risks, and minimally invasive procedures (MIGS), which offer better safety but fall short in outcomes for advanced glaucoma. At PLU Ophthalmic, we’ve developed a solution that changes this narrative, allowing surgeons to provide superior care without trade-offs.

Our Mission:

Our mission is to transform glaucoma surgery by providing innovative solutions that eliminate the trade-off between efficacy and safety. We equip surgeons with tools that enhance patient outcomes, reduce procedure time, and streamline the surgical process. With greater confidence and control, surgeons can minimize risks while improving patient recovery and long-term outcomes. We are committed to redefining glaucoma care through precision, simplicity, and innovation, offering superior results without compromise.

Our Vision:

We envision a future where glaucoma surgery is simpler, safer, and more effective for patients at all stages of the disease. By removing the need for compromise, we empower surgeons to deliver the highest quality of care, improving both outcomes and surgical efficiency.
