Enabling new paths to health

People are looking at health in a more holistic way. This has been standard practice at ZEISS for a long time now, with all business units contributing to innovative health technologies. Some units do this in quite a transparent way through medical technology solutions for diagnostics and therapy in ophthalmology and microsurgery. By using microscopy systems that enable researchers around the world to gain new insights in disease research and with high-quality, customized eyeglass lenses that create an optimal visual experience.

This innovative measuring technology can also ensure quality standards for high-precision medical devices, such as prosthetic legs (although this is not immediately obvious). It has only been possible to do this in recent times thanks to our global leading lithography technology which is used by the chip industry to manufacture semiconductor components. People around the world can find balance in nature with ZEISS binoculars.

Digital technologies, such as data management systems or clinical workflow solutions, support healthcare workers. They ensure more efficient processes and create more time for core medical tasks. Thus, digitalization is enabling new paths to health which ZEISS is advancing with its highly innovative technologies in order to provide people all over the world with access to medical care.

ZEISS would like to help provide as many people as possible with access to modern healthcare. That's why ZEISS supports projects that aim to enhance the level of medical care for people in underprivileged parts of the world. Alongside training and continuing education, the key to delivering good medical care can also be found in supplying technical equipment to hospitals and medical practices. One example is our recent donation to the Boa Visão Eye Hospital in Mozambique, which is transforming eye care in that region with advanced diagnostic and surgical equipment.
