## Description

Medicel, a global market leader for IOL injectors, was founded by Emil Hohl and is now a part of the Halma company. The brand's core principle is to make eye surgery safer, simpler, and more efficient. Medicel's journey began in 1996 in Widnau, Switzerland, and since then, they have continued to innovate, leading to the successful market launch of their first injector in 1999. Medicel is a trusted name in the industry, with every fifth injector worldwide being a Medicel injector. Annually, over four million injection systems are produced at their state-of-the-art facility in Altenrhein, Switzerland. These systems are used for the injection of foldable intraocular lenses, accounting for more than 20% of global usage. In addition to their IOL injectors, Medicel also manufactures various other single-use instruments used in cataract and transplantation surgeries worldwide. As a part of the Halma group, Medicel collaborates with renowned ophthalmic companies, including Keeler, Volk, MST, Accutome, and Visiometrics.
