Eagle Labs

What Eagle Labs does

Eagle Labs LLC is a US-based manufacturer of single-use ophthalmic medical devices, founded in 1988 and headquartered in Rancho Cucamonga, California. The company designs and produces single-use ophthalmic cannulae and micro-surgical knives/blades for eye surgeons, ophthalmologists, and healthcare facilities performing ophthalmic surgical procedures, and has manufactured all Eagle-branded products in the USA since inception. Following its acquisition by Innovia Medical LLC Group in September 2018, Eagle Labs' portfolio expanded to include five occlusion therapy SKUs (Dissolvable VisiPlug, Collagen Plugs, AccuFlo Punctal Occluder, ComfortTip Punctal Occluder, and OPAQUE Herrick Lacrimal Plugs) acquired through Innovia's November 2021 acquisition of Lacrimedics.

The business model is sales-led hardware sales of disposable medical instruments, monetized through direct sales to healthcare facilities and medical professionals worldwide, supplemented by distribution partnerships with sister companies within the Innovia Medical group: DTR Medical (UK), Summit Medical (USA), and Network Medical (international). Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company markets via trade shows (notably MEDICA in Düsseldorf), its corporate website with downloadable brochures, and Innovia Medical's social media channels (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube). Manufacturing operates under ISO 13485:2016, MDSAP16, FDA CFR 21 compliance, and CE Mark registration under MDD 93/42/EEC.

Eagle Labs is a privately held company owned via Innovia Medical LLC, which is controlled by Shore Capital Partners — a Chicago-based private equity firm focused exclusively on microcap healthcare investments. Innovia Medical consolidates the legacies of Shippert Medical, Summit Medical, Network Medical, and Eagle Labs. The company's strategic posture since 2018 has emphasized portfolio breadth and distribution reach through acquisitions and channel buildout rather than internal R&D; Eagle Labs has not disclosed revenue, headcount, or financial performance publicly.
