Business overview
6over6 develops GlassesOn, a digital healthcare platform that enables users to perform vision tests using only a smartphone. Its clinically proven apps provide accurate measurements of refractive errors for eyeglasses or contact lens prescriptions, including farsighted or nearsighted vision, pupillary distance, and astigmatism. The company operates in the Health Tech & Life Sciences sector, specifically within Digital Medical Diagnostics, serving global markets with a focus on patients.
Strategic signal
In June 2025, the Israeli development center of Sequel, which was established following the acquisition of 6over6, announced its closure and the layoff of approximately 60 employees. This indicates a significant operational restructuring and a shift in the strategic direction for the technology, as development will be transferred to the US team. This signals a consolidation of operations and a potential re-evaluation of the acquired technology's integration strategy.
