$SGPPress releaseOct 1, 2026, 8:00 AM ETRead the release

SpyGlass Pharma acquired 100% of Advanced Vision Science (AVS) from Santen Pharmaceutical for approximately $13 million in cash, securing its existing IOL manufacturer. AVS is the current supplier of the IOL used in SpyGlass's two Phase 3 registrational trials of the BIM-IOL System, so the deal de-risks commercial supply and enables expansion into premium lens options like toric and extended depth-of-focus lenses.
