LKC Technologies: Preserving Sight through Enhancing Diagnostics

With far-reaching implications, RETeval with five patents issued is opening up new ways for physicians and researchers to better utilize visual electrophysiology to evaluate retina function through the assessment, diagnosis, and monitoring of a variety of vision-threatening diseases.

The prowess of LKC’s products was on full display when the company was approached by a doctor to assess whether or not a child has Nystagmus—a rapid eye movement—and determine if it was a primary retina or a brain disorder. LKC worked with the client and conducted trials of several patients to conclude that, with high sensitivity and specificity, one can differentiate between retina and brain issue. This was then followed by peer-reviewed publication.

Right from developing the first commercial ERG system in the marketplace, LKC has earned an impeccable reputation for its products’ longevity, service, durability, stability, and results over time. The innovative products wrapped with the installation and training services provide a seamless experience for doctors, while also helping them with their specific needs and protocols. “Since visual electrophysiology is subject to environmental, electrical noise contamination of the signals, we utilize high-end analog-digital signal processors and extensive noise cancellation algorithms within the devices. We ensure that when the flash is calibrated, the timing is as accurate as it could possibly be. When you use an LKC device, you know you are getting exactly, in terms of stimulus and recording capability, what you expect to get out of the device,” extols Datovech.

Continuing its innovation streak, LKC is further planning to expand its geographical presence and will focus on the European Union, the Middle East, Latin American, and Asian markets. From a product standpoint, research professionals at LKC are working on perfecting the supporting research using the RETeval for major unmet health needs on various disorders such as autism, schizophrenia, and more. With a vision to make a difference in the world and preserve the sight of people, LKC is committed to developing innovative products and delivering world-class customer service.
