Digital Life Line, a stepdown subsidiary DISA (SGX:532) unit DiSa Digital Safety, received an approval for the clinical deployment of its Automated Visual Acuity Test device at a hospital ophthalmology clinic in Hong Kong.
Initially, the device went through a successful three-month trial deployment at a public ophthalmology clinic in Hong Kong, according to a filing with the Singapore Exchange on Wednesday.
The device is aimed at combating myopia, which affects more than 40% of school children in Hong Kong.
Shares of the company surged 100% in recent trading.
