Through this partnership, IOT and Optiswiss aim to fully leverage synergies in their collaboration and optimally pool their shared resources. As experts in the latest lens technologies, IOT and Optiswiss laid a significant foundation for joint development projects in early 2024 by collaborating on “SMYLE,” a special lens designed to slow down the progression of myopia. Moving forward, both companies will work together on further innovative technologies, particularly on progressive lenses. In addition to its own expert knowledge, Optiswiss will benefit from the excellent expertise of IOT's research and development centres, as well as from collaborations with other well-known institutes and universities. Both companies are committed to constantly striving to create market-enriching innovations that offer genuine added value – firmly believing that collaborations with the right partners deliver the best results.
With its nearly 90-year history, Optiswiss is one of the most modern lens manufacturers in Europe, continuously investing in cutting-edge process and production automation and the highest quality standards at Basel to actively shape the industry with innovation and sustainability.
