Lutra Health

It's great to be shortlisted for the Health Service Journal Partnership Awards 2025 🎉 We've been shortlisted for our work with NHS Tayside's ophthalmology department. #ophthalmology #optometry #awards #hsj

🤝 QantX have been excellent partners since the very earliest days of Lutra Health. We can safely say we would not be here today if it weren't for their support! Special thanks go to Roger Killen, whose first-hand experience interacting with fragmented eyecare services gave him the conviction to back Lutra to enable a joined-up approach to eyecare.

📈 It's great to see the appetite amongst optometrists for a system enabling a joined-up approach to eyecare. With practices signing up from the South West to the Highlands, our commitment to providing a tool that links optometry with patients & eye surgeons has led to strong growth in our optometry network. Lutra allows eye surgeons to work with optometry and integrate shared care at the heart of their services. Freeing up valuable surgeon time and enhancing optometry services. A win-win 🤝 #ophthalmology #digitalhealth #optometry

🎉 We’re thrilled to be shortlisted as finalists for the Tech South West awards, in recognition of the work we are doing to reimagine eyecare. Based on a deep understanding the challenges in eyecare, we are solving real world problems and demonstrating fantastic efficiency improvements. We’re really looking forward to the awards evening and rolling into 2025 as we scale and deliver the benefits of our technology and approach across the country. #healthtech #eyecare #nhsinnovation

Today we're announcing the completion of our pre-seed funding round 🚀 We're grateful to QantX for leading the round. Their support began two years ago, through Roger Killen, when they awarded Lutra Health the Blavatnik Prize for Innovation. This money allowed us to develop a proof-of-concept and launch in the NHS, with John Ellis and his team. This investment will massively accelerate our product development, enabling us to meet the growing demand for a product that connects community and secondary eyecare. There are too many people to thank, but special thanks go to the syndicate of angels who also supported the round. https://lnkd.in/eaC4P8rT #investment #healthtech #eyecare
