Our Story

Eyeli cares about vision.

Eyeli exists because binocular vision testing was too slow, too manual, and too inconsistent to do properly in a busy practice.

Built by an optometrist
who lived the problem.

Ilse Homan, Founder of Eyeli
“Our goal is to reduce the time from the start of testing to a clear, structured overview of the patient's visual system. This helps practitioners identify potential problems earlier and make informed diagnostic and treatment recommendations.”

Mission & Vision

Eyeli was created to simplify practice workflows so that eye care practitioners can spend more time on what matters most: caring for their patients' vision. The platform brings the full consultation workflow into a single, unified application.

With increasing digital visual demands, the global rise in myopia and the growing recognition of binocular vision disorders, eye care practitioners have an increasingly important role in protecting children's visual development and improving patients' quality of life. To support this role, Eyeli includes dedicated binocular vision and myopia modules with integrated risk assessments, digital testing, automated calculations, normative comparisons and information on clinically proven treatment options.

Ultimately, Eyeli's mission is to help preserve the gift of sight - by making binocular vision testing routine for every patient, not just specialist referrals, and by making sure every finding is followed through with therapy, tracking, and reporting, not left at diagnosis.
