Oculight

Oculight is a South Korea-based ophthalmic medical device company focused on surgical tools and illumination systems for eye surgery, particularly cataract and retinal procedures. Founded in 2017 by ophthalmic surgeon Dr. Dong Heun Nam, the company is best known for the iChopper, an illuminated chopper for cataract surgery, and iVision, a dedicated LED light source used together in its SmartBeam approach. Oculight has positioned itself as an ophthalmology device innovator rather than a therapeutics developer, with products aimed at improving intraoperative visualization, surgical precision, and workflow. The company has also established a U.S. subsidiary, OCU L&C, to support commercialization in the United States. Available public information indicates Oculight is a private, venture-backed, actively operating medical device company.
