Morrow Optics Company

Morrow was started with the ambitious plan to transform eyewear for the good and for the better, so we can all enjoy a higher level of visual comfort. Our mission is inventing new technologies to transform the eyewear industry for the good and the better. By introducing active eyeglasses, we offer our customer an advanced level of visual comfort and freedom of action in any situation and create a digital platform to improve their eye-health. Once past forty, our focus can no longer focus at near distance. We catch ourselves looking over and underneat our glasses. Or we buy a pair of multifocals and narrow our field of view. The amazing technology that daily pushes us forward is holding us back when it comes to our eyesight. Jelle De Smet, our CTO developed a tunable contact lens technoloygy during his PhD at imec, a leading nanotechnology center. After some discussions, we decided to apply the concept on eyeglasses first. This led to the invention of Autofocals. To bring this innovation to the market, we founded Morrow in 2016 and are fortunate to be backed by New Science Ventures, imec.Xpand, Tokai Optecs, PMV and QBIC. Imec and Tokai are also our important development partners.
