Company background
Imagine a small workshop and a man with foresight and perspicacity. This
was Medmont 12 years ago. In those early days he had the vision to create a company based
on the delivery of a quality product at a reasonable cost to the Australian
market. It was with this vision that Medmont Pty. Ltd. was formed in the late 1980's to develop and market a range of ophthalmic instrumentation centred on an Automated Perimeter which at that time was in early prototype development.
For an equipment developer and manufacturer to do this in Australia was
generally seen as being an impossibility due to the competition internationally,
the costs involved in research and development and the disadvantages of a small
population. Thanks to a simple plan, amazing innovation and the readiness of the Australian
profession to provide us with constructive feedback, not only has Medmont
delivered to Australia, the company has taken on the world.
The first unit, known as the M600 Automated Perimeter, was delivered in December 1988 and proved to be an outstanding success on the local market. Its early acceptance on domestic market was soon followed by similar success internationally. The first export unit was shipped only 10 months after the first local delivery and the M600 is now sold in numerous countries throughout Western and Eastern Europe, Indian sub-continent, Asia-Pacific region as well as North and South America.
With over 30 overseas markets, we continue to expand both our export horizons and our
product range, showing how an Australian company can not just compete with the
multinationals, but offer products that are second to none.
Medmont also produces the innovative and extremely accurate E300 Corneal Topographer, offering
features unseen on competitors products. With the recently released DV2000
Digital Imaging software, we have answered our clients call for an intuitive
solution to this rapidly expanding area. Our AT20R Visual Acuity Tester has
unmatched flexibility and has made chart projector systems dated and
comparatively unwieldy.
With continuing development of hardware and software, Medmont have always had a ready
market for equipment that is accurate and cost effective. The ongoing
affordability and upgradability of our products, without having to compromise on
quality or accuracy have been the keys to our success.
When we made our first perimeter it was with a vision towards the future. There had
to be the facility to upgrade the instrument as new techniques and software
became available. Despite the incredible evolution of PCs and the new testing
techniques that have been developed. we are able to upgrade that first perimeter
up to our latest software package at a minimal cost. All Medmont products
provide comprehensive and versatile measurement capability through the
integration of sophisticated diagnostic and testing techniques with advanced
computer software programs in a system based product philosophy.
Medmont aims to provide a comprehensive ophthalmic product range to the domestic and
international markets and is seeking opportunities to consolidate and enhance
this range. We believe that as a manufacturer and supplier of advanced
technology products, we are in the unique position of being able to offer our
customers an outstanding professional service covering application, sales
and support.
Our company has headquarters located in Vermont, Melbourne,
occupying approximately 1500 square metres, as well as a sales office in Sydney
We have been rewarded by the faith that all our customers place in us and continue development for their expanding
needs. Because of the robust design of our products, there is no need for specialised servicing
requirements. The practitioner has no need to have service contracts. Our
focus can continue to stay on what we do best, developing and enhancing our
products.
We take this opportunity to thank the Australian market for their feedback and
support over the last 12 years and look forward to our continuing partnership over the years to
come.
