2. Company History
The research history of the Company's products
goes back to 1986 when two Hungarian optical
engineers (Dr. Ábrahám György és Dr. Wenzel
Klára), expertise in color science, dared
to question the ophthalmologists' dogma
on the reason of Color Vision Deficiency.
At an the early stage researches have limited
only to students' scientific work and preparation
of diplomas.
MD's would blame the lack of sensitivity
of color receptor in the eye for deficient
color perception. Our scientists came up
with the idea that Color Vision Deficiency
can be caused by a decrease and/or a shift
in the sensitivity to colors, as explained
in the "about Color Vision Deficiency".
During the Basic Research of Color Vision
Deficiency they have applied mathematical
models for simulating human eyes, developed
special equipment and diagnostic techniques
to analyze Color Vision Deficiency. 600
test people were involved in the diagnostic
tests.
In 1993 the two optical engineers have
patented the Color Vision Deficiency enhancing
lenses and in 1995 they patent diagnostic
equipment. The significant cost of patents
were supported by the Hungarian Patent Office.
In 1998 the First Hungary Fund has fined
attractive the results of researches and
patent extended over almost the whole world
and incorporated Coloryte The First Hungary
Fund provided financial background to the
further researches. The most talented students
were employed by Coloryte after finishing
their university studies.
The Color Vision Deficiency improving lens
and the PDT diagnostic equipment have been
developed to a marketable product. The clinical
test of the lenses, involving an American
company, ended successfully (CRO, Clinical
Research Organisation).
Unfortunately, the mandate of the fund
expired in the end of 2003 and as Coloryte
can not turn to profitable the First Hungarian
Fund has liquidate Coloryte.
In July 2003 we fund Colorlite Ltd to manufacture
and develop Color Vision Deficiency improving
lenses.
