What Vistec does

Vistec GmbH, headquartered in Olching, Germany, is a privately held medical technology company that designs, manufactures, and distributes specialized diagnostic equipment for occupational, traffic, and social medicine. The company's portfolio centers on three integrated device families: the Optovist II vision testing device (Sehtestgerät), including a pediatric variant (Optovist II K), for measuring visual acuity and other visual functions; the Perivist Compact III perimeter for visual field assessment; and the Corporal Plus psychometric test system for performance testing. These devices are augmented by Sophia, a digital vision-test assistant with voice-assist capability integrated with the Optovist and Perivist platforms, and are bundled with accessories such as height-adjustable Vistec Hubtische workstation tables and the distributed Reichert 7 Non-Contact Tonometer for intraocular pressure screening.

The business serves seven primary customer segments — traffic medicine (driver fitness assessments under FeV), occupational medicine (G25 and ArbMedVV examinations), ophthalmology/eye care, psychology, aviation medicine, public health services (including school health), and police medical services — with vertical specialization in German regulatory frameworks being the core commercial proposition. Vistec monetizes primarily through one-time device sales (medical device sales), supplemented by recurring revenue from certified seminars and training programs (in-person, online via Microsoft Teams, and customized on-site offerings priced from €200 for individual online seats up to €2,790 per on-site day for up to 20 participants) and from maintenance, repair, and technical/software hotline services. Distribution is direct nationwide in Germany via phone, email, and online quote requests; digital marketing channels include the company website, LinkedIn, Facebook, downloadable technical literature, and trade-show appearances (e.g., Deutscher Betriebsärzte-Kongress des VDBW). The company was acquired by FIM Medical from 22Ventures on 2025-10-30 and now operates within the FIM Group; it had previously converted from Vistec AG to Vistec GmbH on 2025-07-30 under German Transformation Act provisions, with its legal and economic identity preserved.
