The company was founded by David Muller, current president and CEO of Avedro, who previously founded and led Summit Technology Inc., the original developer of Lasik technology. ...
Avedro was founded in 2008, based on 2002 technology from Dartmouth College associate engineering professor B. Stuart Trembly.
