Calgary, Alberta – TheNewswire - August 26, 2025 - Ocumetics Technology Corp. (“Ocumetics” or the “Company”) (TSXV: OTC) (OTCQB: OTCFF) (FRA: 2QBO), a leader in advanced ophthalmic technology, is pleased to announce that it has completed the one-week postoperative examination of the first patients who were implanted with the Ocumetics Accommodating Intraocular Lens (the “Ocumetics Lens”).  All patients are recovering well, and no complications have been observed.

 

With this important milestone achieved, additional individuals are now being recruited to complete the first group of patients who will be receive the Ocumetics Lens.

 

“This is an exciting and meaningful step forward in our mission to redefine vision correction,” said Dean Burns, President and CEO of Ocumetics Technology Corp.  “Early outcomes with our first patients have been encouraging, allowing us to proceed with a second day of implantations.  The real measure of success, of course, will be seen over the coming weeks when the eyes have recovered completely from surgery.”

 

“This moment culminates years of development,” added Dr. Garth Webb, Chief Scientist and Founder of Ocumetics.  “The Ocumetics Lens has always been about restoring the full range of vision to patients.  These first clinical results show that we are on the right path toward making that vision a reality.”

 

Unlike traditional monofocal or multifocal intraocular lenses, the Ocumetics Lens is designed to use the natural muscular activity within the eye to focus both distant and near objects clearly without glasses or contact lenses following cataract surgery.
