Speaking about the need for additional funding Shashwat Kedia, CEO and Founder, Lensico said “We are in a business that improves people’s quality of life. Among Indians, there is a shift in preference towards wearing contact lenses as opposed to spectacles. This trend is most visible among the young and is as potent in smaller towns and cities in India as in larger metropolitan areas. We believe that we are poised to serve this market and offer the gift of good eyesight to millions without compromising on their physical appearance. Nearly 50% of Indians suffer from poor eyesight, we expect to serve this huge market and as a result to improve the lives of millions”.
