Hexiris: Simpler and Better Solutions for Patients and Ophthalmologists
Dr. Houfar Skehavat and Dr. Nir Shoham-Hazon, both ophthalmologists from Canada, founded Hexiris with a shared mission: to address critical unmet needs in ophthalmology that they witnessed during their humanitarian work. Their vision is to create innovative, accessible, and effective solutions for patients and community ophthalmologists worldwide.
In the accompanying video on the side, you’ll see the profound impact that accessible and appropriate treatment can have on underserved populations—further motivating our commitment to delivering solutions that make a difference.
Hexiris is a medtech company committed to advancing ophthalmic devices that simplify treatments and improve access for patients in need. Our goal is to empower ophthalmologists with tools that are not only effective but also practical in diverse clinical settings.
Currently, Hexiris is developing several groundbreaking devices. One example is our Advanced Technology Device designed for office-based Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgeries (MIGS). This first-of-its-kind innovation has been tested and holds the promise of transforming glaucoma care by making it simpler and more accessible for both patients and practitioners.
Shortage of Operating Room Capacity: Taking Glaucoma Surgery out of the OR
In recent years, public operating rooms (OR) have faced a shortage of staff and access. Taking bleb-forming Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgeries (MIGS) to the office setting would benefit the healthcare system by freeing up operating room (OR) space and reducing waiting times for other surgeries.
