About Us

Our Mission

At Tracey Technologies, everything we do is dictated by a simple belief: Quality of Vision IS Quality of Life. That’s why we are devoted to bringing doctors the technology they need to understand vision at a deeper level. Analyzing vision at the corneal and lenticular level leads to better patient outcomes as iTrace doctors are able to more accurately diagnose and precisely treat their patients.

About Tracey Technologies

After our CEO, Joe Wakil, brought corneal topography to the eyecare field, he realized the value of adding diagnostic aberrometry to the equation. While scientists have long used ray-tracing for precision measuring in other fields, Tracey Technologies was founded by a team of doctors in 1999 to bring ray-tracing technology to the eyecare industry. His team created an integrated wavefront aberrometer and corneal topographer designed to objectively measure vision in any patient. To this day, the iTrace remains the only device on the market that can accurately scan every patient, including those with higher order aberrations and implanted lenses.

WHY I CHOOSE THE iTRACE

“I think that anyone who’s doing Toric IOLs really must have an iTrace. Because post-operatively, more particularly, it’ll tell you where the lens is sitting and it’ll tell you if you need to go back and rotate it. I’m amazed at how accurate it is.”
