i-Lumen Scientific Private Investor Reception

RSVP Here

Dear Investor,

We are pleased to invite you to an exclusive, invitation-only investor reception on Tuesday, September 30 in New York City featuring i-Lumen Scientific, a ophthalmology company focused on restoring vision in those Dry Age-related Macular Degeneration (Dry-AMD).

Please note that this meeting is for DIRECT and ACTIVE investors only. All RSVPs must be pre-registered on this Eventbrite site with the investor criteria filled out. All RSVPs are subject to review and approval.

Unlike current pharma-based therapies that merely slow disease progress (vision loss), i-Lumen’s patented, non-invasive ocular stimulation therapy (OST) is designed to improve vision with a ‘physician-delivered therapy’ to help the 200.0M people worldwide suffering from Dry-AMD. i-Lumen’s recently completed i-SIGHT Study demonstrated that 54% of participants had improved vision of 2+ Lines (10+ letters) within 7 treatment days delivered within 2 months and maintained the improvement through 12 months.

With a large unmet market, strong clinical data, and a clear FDA pathway, i-Lumen is positioned to be acquired by a strategic in Ophthalmology as early as 2028, and the $850.0M acquisition of LumiThera by Alcon in 2025 has established a benchmark for energy-based therapeutics to treat Dry-AMD.

Why i-Lumen?

Superior Mechanism of Action Restores Vision

i-Lumen’s proprietary ocular stimulation therapy repolarizes retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells and restores photoreceptor cell function, improving visual acuity and slowing disease progression.

  • 54% improved BCVA by ≥10 letters and maintained improvement out to 12 mths

  • 21% increase in photoreceptor cell light-processing speed

  • 14% increase in signal strength generated by photoreceptor cells

Massive, Underserved Market

  • 200.0 M people globally suffer with AMD, more than 20.0M in the US alone

  • Dry AMD market projected to be $68.0B by 2029

Established Acquisition Benchmark – $850.0M Pre-Revenue Sale

  • Alcon acquired LumiThera, Inc. for an estimated $850.0M

  • LumiThera’s Velada® is an energy-based device therapy for dry AMD

The LumiThera acquisition underscores the industry’s focus on energy-based therapies like the i-Lumen® AMD System, a scalable physician-based revenue model

Pathway to Exit in 2028

  • i-SIGHT2 Pivotal Trial data availability – projected for mid-2027

  • Submission to FDA for market clearance – projected for late 2027

  • Re-engage ophthalmology targets (Alcon, B+L, J&J, etc.) – projected for 2028

Why Attend:

This is a rare opportunity to invest in a late-stage ophthalmology company with a therapeutic that generates vision improvement an industry known for pre-revenue acquisitions. With validated science, a de-risked FDA strategy, and strong IP, i-Lumen offers the potential for 12–15x return projected within the next 2 to 3 years.
