Intelon Optics

Intelon Optics is a medical device company founded in 2011, specializing in advanced non-contact biomechanical imaging solutions for the eye and other living tissues.

The company is headquartered in the Boston area and employs approximately 11 to 50 staff members. Its proprietary technology, developed at Harvard Medical School, aims to enhance the ability of clinicians and researchers to assess tissue health by measuring the stiffness of living tissues. The flagship product, the Brillouin Optical Scanning System (BOSSTM), is the first commercially available non-contact ophthalmic scanner that is CE-marked and FDA-cleared. BOSSTM uses light energy to provide real-time, high-resolution imaging of the biomechanics of eye tissues, from the cornea to the posterior part of the eye. This technology is utilized in ophthalmology for diagnostic and surgical solutions, in vitro fertilization for embryo assessment, and broader life sciences research. Intelon Optics serves a diverse audience, including eye care professionals, researchers, and reproductive health providers, enabling more informed treatment decisions.
