Novartis AG (NOVN.EB) said Wednesday that its eye-care division Alcon has bought Tear Film Innovations, a company that manufactures a therapeutic device used to treat a leading cause of a condition know as dry eye.
Tear Film's iLux device, for the treatment of meibomian gland dysfunction, received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in December 2017 and was officially launched in May 2018, Novartis said.
"With the acquisition of Tear Film, we're excited to bring this latest innovation to treat the millions of people around the world who suffer from dry eye," said Andy Pawson, president of Alcon's global vision care franchise.
