An innovative medical devices company on Long Island
Posted by Dominic Basulto
A big hat tip to Optimyst Systems of West Islip: the Long Island-based company was the winner in the "Medical Devices" category of the Wall Street Journal's Technology Innovation Awards 2005. The company won the award for a new device for applying eye medicines that is easier and less wasteful than traditional methods. The Optimyst device uses ultrasound to turn medications into a fine mist that can be sprayed into the eye, delivering medications more efficiently than eye droppers.
