Carl Zeiss Meditec announced it has entered into an agreement to acquire IanTECH. Headquartered in Reno, Nev., IanTECH is a privately held company focused on technology solutions for micro-interventional cataract surgery.

"We expect that IanTECH will complement our leading portfolio of equipment and consumables in cataract surgery, allowing us to offer physicians and patients a new standard of care," says Dr. Ludwin Monz, president and CEO of Carl Zeiss Meditec.

"We look forward to joining ZEISS to combine our efforts in bringing superior technology to the market and we are pleased to align with the great culture and commitment at ZEISS," added Brian Walsh, CEO of IanTECH.
