Topcon Corporation (Head Office: Itabashi-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Takashi Eto) is pleased to announce its partnership with TESSAN, Inc., the French innovative leader in medical teleconsultation solutions.

TESSAN is a start-up company implementing a remote diagnosis platform and having the vision of contributing to the maintenance and improvement of quality of vision for people in the French society. Whereas Topcon can demonstrate advantages of its fully automatic eyecare instruments through this partnership. Using Topcon devices running seamlessly on TESSAN’s teleconsultation platform will surely create great value for both eye care practitioners and their patients.

The ageing of the population and the increase in ophthalmologic diseases are straining the resources of ophthalmologists in France. There are situations where people must wait months just to get their glasses made. With growing demand and expectations for faster and more efficient workflows, the services of these two companies enable patients to access treatment, including diagnosis and referral, much faster.　They will also receive the same level of glasses or contact lens prescriptions, screening, and ophthalmic diagnostics, regardless of whether they are in a remote area or a metropolitan area. In addition, ophthalmologists will benefit from an improvement in overall practice efficiency, including the ability to properly filter patients and more efficient use of staff and physician time compared to in-person consultations.
