The company was co-founded by CBID students Joshua Blair and Spencer Shumway. Visilant Medical is co-founded by Dr. Kunal Parikh and Jordan Stuff who graduated from CBID. The team is developing a smartphone-based telemedicine platform that can be used by caregivers, senior living facilities, or primary care providers to screen patients for cataracts.
