DIVE Medical is a Spanish health technology company that develops a digital medical device for fast, accurate, and objective exploration of visual function, especially in non-verbal and non-collaborative patients such as infants from six months old and children with neurological or cognitive difficulties. Their proprietary technology combines eye tracking and artificial intelligence to provide comprehensive visual function exams and screenings that detect a wide range of visual pathologies including refractive disorders, amblyopia, strabismus, lens opacities, retinopathies, optic nerve disorders, oculomotor control disorders, and color deficiencies. The device is portable, child-friendly, and designed to improve medical decision-making by providing objective data that reduces subjectivity and dependence on examiner experience. Founded by a team of engineers, doctors, and business managers, DIVE Medical has received multiple awards and grants, and collaborates with pediatric ophthalmologists and optometrists from the Miguel Servet University Hospital and researchers from the University of Zaragoza. Their business model is based on selling their medical device and software solutions to ophthalmologists, pediatricians, and optometrists globally, aiming to provide universal, affordable, and effective early vision diagnosis and treatment tools.
