Topcon acquires Henson perimeter business

Topcon Healthcare has acquired the Henson line of perimetry products, including the Henson 9000 and 7000, from Elektron Eye Technology.

A number of Elektron Eye Technology staff have been transferred to Topcon’s team and manufacturing will continue in the UK.

John Trefethen, global vice-president of marketing and product design for Topcon Healthcare, said: ‘The acquisition of the Henson range of products will provide us with the opportunity to strategically develop this area of the company’s product portfolio. With Topcon’s growing emphasis on screening and early disease detection, the Henson product range perfectly complements our global strategy.’
