Forms a Powerhouse in Optical Design and Volume Manufacture for Medical Device Imaging Systems and Safer, Single-Use Devices
Precision Optics Corporation, Inc. (OTCQB: PEYE), a leading designer and manufacturer of advanced optical instruments, announces a strategic merger with Lighthouse Imaging LLC (“Lighthouse Imaging”). The merger combines two leaders in medical optics and digital imaging, helping customers leverage Precision Optics’ next-generation micro-optics capabilities with Lighthouse Imaging’s leading-edge optical imaging electronics and systems integration. Together, the two companies take precision optical imaging solutions from concept into commercialization at scale, helping product development teams partner with a single source for optical modules, endoscopic equipment, and complex illumination systems.
“This is an exciting time for Precision Optics, Lighthouse Imaging, our employees, our customers, and
our shareholders as we bring together two industry leaders in the development and manufacture of
medical imaging systems,” commented Dr. Joseph Forkey, President, and CEO of Precision Optics.
“We’re excited to expand our presence so that our customers can continue advancing modern healthcare
through precision visualization solutions and safer medical devices.”
Tom Snyder, CEO of Lighthouse Imaging, commented, “On behalf of the owners and employees of
Lighthouse Imaging, I am excited about the combination of these two industry-leading companies.
Together, we are well-positioned to serve the medical imaging markets.”
Minimally invasive surgeries require devices that deliver high-resolution digital imaging in the smallest
possible size. Precision Optics, together with Lighthouse Imaging, is uniquely capable to deliver both
optical and electrical engineering requirements in endoscopy solutions and to develop innovative
instrumentation that challenges limits for size and performance.
Like Ross Optical, Lighthouse Imaging is now officially a division of Precision Optics. Lighthouse
Imaging customers can expect the same commitment to service and point of contact along with increased depth and breadth of capability.
