A NOVEL THERAPY TO PREVENT VISION LOSS FROM MACULAR DEGENERATION
1
Our Mission
Imagine a safer, more convenient, and exceptionally effective treatment for Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), Diabetic Macular Edema, and Diabetic Retinopathy that requires significantly fewer injections.

At Optigo Bio, we imagined this for you and are making it a reality.
Optigo Bio - Logo Animation-3.gif

The Optigo Bio logo was inspired directly by the novelty of our product. The logo is comprised of a circle that represents the retina, which is at the very core of our therapy. The circle is made up of 12 distinct segments, each of which represents one monthly injection of medication into the eye. Our mission is to reduce the frequency of risky, expensive, and burdensome injections from once every 1 to 3 months to once every 12 months. Of these 12 segments, one is “Dark” blue and the remaining 11 are “Light” blue. The dark blue segment represents our product. A single injection is delivered once a year. A convenient and effective solution for lifetime better vision.

About Optigo Biotherapeutics

We believe that by reducing the frequency at which each dose of drug is delivered, we will reduce the inconvenience, discomfort, risk and expense of existing treatments. In doing so, we hope to reduce the number of patients dropping out of their treatment cycles or having to skip doses due to inconvenient timing.


Optigo Bio’s therapies for Age-related Macular Degeneration, Diabetic Retinopathy and Diabetic Macular Edema aim to prevent vision loss from these blinding retinal diseases with far fewer injections into the eye.
