Using the patented OptiCast cast-to-prescription system, eye care providers can now make high quality prescription lenses in their offices in as little as twenty minutes. The system requires no special skills, no polishing and can be operated by a layman with minimal training. The result is superior prescription lenses at a fraction of the cost and time of current methods. It's good for the consumer. Good for the industry. And great for Opticast. In fact, they are being assisted in the commercialization of this breakthrough technology by an $860,000 grant from Ohio's Third Frontier Action Fund.
Ohio is an ideal location for innovative technology companies like Opticast, with an impressive balance of profitable business advantages combined with an uncompromising personal lifestyle. While Ohio is a center for leading-edge technology, research and development, with excellent transportation and a skilled workforce, its diverse culture, outstanding schools and affordable housing make it an attractive place to live as well.
What's more, Ohio voters recently approved $2 billion in funding to benefit new business in the state. Combine that with Ohio's newly reformed business-friendly tax laws and locating in Ohio is more attractive than ever. Visit us at OhioMeansBusiness.com.
