January is Glaucoma Awareness Month.

Glaucoma continues to be one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness worldwide, often advancing quietly until vision loss becomes significant. That reality makes early diagnosis, thoughtful intervention, and efficient clinical workflows more important than ever.

At IQity, glaucoma is central to the problems we are working to solve. Across diagnostics and treatment, we are building technologies designed to support better outcomes while reducing complexity, saving clinician time, and lowering the overall cost of care.

Progress in glaucoma care is not about adding more tools.
It is about enabling smarter decisions, smoother workflows, and solutions that scale in real world practice.

This month is a reminder that meaningful change happens when insight, technology, and clinical reality are connected from start to finish.

How effective is ECP when combined with phaco? The evidence is clear.

A recent study in the Pan-American Journal of Ophthalmology found that glaucoma patients undergoing phaco ECP experienced greater and more sustained IOP reduction compared with phaco alone, along with a reduced need for glaucoma medications.

ECP is one of the most well studied and well understood glaucoma procedures available. Yet for decades, high capital costs, fragile light fibers, and limited innovation have held it back from broader adoption.

We believe that needs to change.

With IQ Flow, we are rethinking how ECP is delivered, removing unnecessary barriers and bringing modern design to a proven approach in glaucoma care.

We’ll be opening the first contingent of IQity demo slots for ASCRS 2026 shortly.

These hands-on sessions will give surgeons early access to the most mature versions yet of IQ-Flow, IQ-Meter and IQ-SurgiView and more – experienced as an integrated workflow.

Details and registration will follow soon. Watch this space!

More technology does not automatically mean better surgery.

In many operating rooms, it adds more steps, more interfaces, more complexity, and higher cost.

The real opportunity is simplification.
Designing systems that reduce friction, not add to it.

In ophthalmology, it’s getting harder to separate signal from noise.

There is a lot happening in ophthalmology right now, and not much time to sort through it all.

IQ Signal is how we share what we are seeing and learning, directly with you. A concise newsletter focused on emerging technologies and the conversations that matter for real world practice.

No spam. No fluff.
Just the insights that matter for daily practice and long-term planning.

A new year brings fresh momentum and a clear milestone ahead. ASCRS 2026 is 100 days away.

Over the past months, we’ve been building, testing, refining, and listening closely to surgeons. What we’ll be sharing at ASCRS reflects that work.

We’re not ready to reveal everything just yet; but for those paying attention to where ophthalmic surgery is heading, this is one to watch.

Achieving consistent visual outcomes remains one of the most complex challenges in ophthalmology.

Clinical research continues to show how variability across patients, procedures, and postoperative conditions can influence IOL performance and patient satisfaction. Too often, managing that variability depends on manual calculations, fragmented data, and subjective judgment.

At IQity, we address this challenge with technology designed to reduce human error. Swipe to see

Even with near-universal EHR adoption, much of ophthalmic data is still captured and reviewed manually. This creates inefficiencies that introduce error, consume clinician time, and limit scalability.

Research from other surgical fields shows that manual chart review can carry error rates of approximately 10% and take several minutes per case, while automated data queries deliver faster and more reliable results.

At IQity, we believe ophthalmology deserves better systems.

Efficiency isn’t just about speed. It’s about designing systems that work.
