The Vitrea Story
Luke's path to founding Vitrea was inspired by his grandfather's life-long struggle with Macular Degeneration. His experience in eye care, working alongside his Ophthalmologist father, further exposed him to the limitations in care for those suffering from the disease.
Prior to starting medical school, Luke spearheaded research on age-related eye diseases in more than 13,000 patients. This blend of personal drive and academic rigor set the stage for Vitrea, a venture born from a desire to innovate in eye care and deliver solutions where they are most needed.
