Oakland, CA – 8
December 2005 - With last month’s signing of Refocus Group, Vintara
is rapidly becoming the premier provider for fully automated,
web-based quality management software for medical device
manufacturers to meet FDA regulatory requirements.
Refocus Group Inc.
is a medical device company engaged in the research and development
of treatments for human vision disorders. Refocus Group holds over
90 domestic and international issued and pending patents, the vast
majority directed to methods, devices, and systems for the treatment
of presbyopia and other eye disorders. Presbyopia impacts nearly
everyone over age 40. As nearly everyone over 40 knows, our eyes'
ability to focus on close-up tasks such as reading diminishes as we
age. This condition, known as presbyopia (Greek for "old
eye"), eventually affects nearly all of the population past middle
age. Historically, the only help for presbyopia has consisted of
bifocal or other types of lenses, or reading glasses. Researchers
at Refocus Group have developed a revolutionary new technique they
believe will prove to be effective in treating presbyopia. In the
United States, Refocus Group is currently conducting its Phase III
FDA clinical trials.
Dawn Plaskon,
Vintara’s Director of Consulting Services stated; “the daunting task
of FDA compliance can be distilled in several key steps that by
utilizing our software platform will enable organizations like
Refocus to quickly and cost-effectively ensure FDA compliance of
their quality management systems.” Glenn Kohner, Vintara’s
President, added to Dawn’s comments; “with Refocus joining the
Vintara family of medical device manufacturers, Vintara is becoming
a key enabler of medical device manufacturers to comply both with
FDA regulations and ISO 13485 standards.”
