OcuVista Solutions aims to address the difficulty of self-administering eye drops. Bishakh developed an add-on polymer for existing contact lenses that allows for medication release into the eye over time. 

The technology aims to replace traditional eye drops, expanding from treating glaucoma and dry eye to other conditions like chronic inflammation and myopia control. Bishakh also plans to explore other applications for sustained drug release beyond eye care.

Bishakh was inspired to create something impactful and valuable to help people overcome limitations with their healthcare. Bishakh’s experience with D3 helped him gain new perspectives and refine his focus, while providing practical guidance and support. 

“I think a lot of what success is, is quite personal. For me, it's a combination of making an impact, so that we are able to help people and have made a positive impact on the world, plus the financial aspect. Success also stems from the personal growth that we experience as a result of going through this process.” - Bishakh Rout
