Who We Are

OTCQB:VYCO

Our Two Product Lines

Most comprehensive, commercially available and clinically-supported line of complementary therapies: Visual Restoration Therapy® (VRT): the only FDA-cleared therapy for the restoration of vision loss as the result of stroke or brain damage NeuroEyeCoach™: helps patient compensate for vision disorders as a result of stroke or brain damage

ViewSite™ Brain Access System (VBAS) • VBAS is a revolutionary neurosurgical device used

to retract and gain access to targets within the brain

• Allows access to tumors or other pathologies, or physical objects, like bullets or shrapnel fragments

OTCQB:VYCO

NovaVision’s suite of complementary therapies helps patients with vision disorders resulting from stroke or brain injury

Similar to recovery from motor deficits after brain injury, where repetitive stimulation has proven effective in recovery of patient functions such as movements of lower limbs, systematic repetitive visual training can lead to improved visual sensitivity and function

By stimulating the adjacent neuronal pathways, they assume some of the functionality that had been lost, effectively creating a bypass mechanism

Clinically Demonstrated to Restore and Make the Most of Remaining Vision VRT: 15 years of research, 20 clinical studies including a 302 patient

study in which notable improvements were seen in over 70% of the patients. Prescription-based, bespoke “at home” therapy — Not an App

NeuroEyeCoach: based on empirical evidence gained from several decades of research and 14 studies on a total of 591 patients. Oct 2016 study concluded: “NeuroEyeCoach can be used as an effective rehabilitation tool to develop compensatory strategies in patients with visual field deficits after brain injury” and that NeuroEyeCoach can be viewed as being the first evidence-based, vision-specific, clinical gold standard registered medical device accessible to patients at home or in clinical settings.

Patient Success Stories Substantial body of testimonials from enthusiastic patients whose

lives were changed Carol Urban, a former patient, interviews aired on 200+ US radio

stations

NeuroEyeCoach patient, Aug. 2015

VBAS Saves Lives

Previously Inoperable…Now Operable “Her case would have been inoperable via a traditional surgery, because she was taking Avastin®, which delays surgical wound healing. “The VBAS’ minimally invasive nature enabled the surgeon to gain access to the target through only a 3cm incision. “The patient was discharged uneventfully and there were no issues regarding her wound.”

– Daniel Prevedello, MD, Director of the Minimally Invasive Cranial Surgery Program, Ohio State University

Bullet fragment removal “We would not have attempted this without this technology. It’s very exciting”

– Narayan Sundaresan, MD, Chief Neurosurgeon at Lincoln Medical Center, NY, and Professor at Mount Sinai Hospital, NYC
