Our Mission

Protecting Outcomes Through Objective Data.

Aqueo Health empowers eye care specialists with intelligent, privacy-first digital baselines. We provide clinics with the objective ocular surface data required to set accurate patient expectations, optimize surgical biometry, and streamline clinical workflows.

Decision‑support only. Not a diagnostic tool.

The Silent Barrier to Surgical Success

Modern cataract and refractive procedures demand mathematical precision. Yet, the landmark Prospective Health Assessment of Cataract Patients' Ocular Surface study1 revealed that up to 77% of patients presenting for routine surgery possess an abnormal ocular surface-and 85% are completely asymptomatic.

When these pre-existing conditions inevitably flare up post-operatively, asymptomatic patients often blame the surgery. Unmanaged ocular surface disease isn't just a clinical hurdle; it is the primary driver of post-op dissatisfaction and uncompensated chair time.

Aqueo exists to bridge this gap. By capturing objective symptom baselines and blink data, we help you document their pre-existing conditions. We then empower your patients with the exact education, tools, and tracking they need to rehabilitate their tear film—protecting your clinic's time and your patients' peace of mind.

A Comprehensive Digital Pre-Screening Platform

Validated Symptom Tracking

Digitize the intake process with clinically validated questionnaires (e.g., OSDI-6), automatically scoring and flagging patients at risk before their consultation.

Objective Blink Analysis

Utilize device-camera computer vision to capture objective metrics—including blink interval, completeness, and quality indicators—without requiring specialized capital equipment.

Intelligent Triage Support

Transform raw data into evidence-based insights, allowing clinic staff to prioritize patient care, reduce bottlenecks, and utilize chair time more effectively.

Seamless Patient Handoff

Extend your care beyond the clinic walls. Provide patients with a secure, co-branded portal for post-operative recovery tracking, video education, and compliance timers.

Built on Clinical Principles

Evidence-Based Methodology

Our algorithms and questionnaires are strictly grounded in validated clinical research, peer-reviewed methodologies, and major society guidelines (TFOS DEWS II, ASCRS).

Privacy by Design

Data minimization and pseudonymization are built into our architecture from the ground up. We do not monetize patient data.

Clinic-Centric Architecture

You own your data. We serve strictly as your authorized agent, processing data only on your behalf and under your explicit instructions.

Enterprise-Grade Compliance

PHIPA & PIPEDA Compliance

Aqueo operates as an authorized agent under PHIPA (Ontario) and as a service provider under PIPEDA (Federal), processing pseudonymous triage data on behalf of clinics while preserving full clinic control as the Health Information Custodian (HIC).

Canadian Data Residency

All clinical data is stored strictly within Canada (AWS ca-central-1) with AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.2+ in transit. Review our full Privacy Policy →
