Light Source & Video Repair

What Light Source & Video Repair does

Light Source & Video Repair, Inc. (LSVR) is an independently owned, Florida-based (Tarpon Springs) medical equipment repair service company founded in 1994. It specializes in the repair and servicing of endoscopic video equipment used in surgical and diagnostic procedures, covering camera heads, couplers, light sources, processors, printers, pigtails, monitors, and image management systems across major OEMs including Stryker, Olympus, Storz, Smith & Nephew, Arthrex, and ACMI. The company maintains fully in-house capabilities across R&D, molding, machine shop, assembly, repair, and customer service, allowing it to manufacture proprietary replacement parts and reduce dependence on OEM supply chains.

The company's core commercial offering is professional repair services priced at approximately 50% of OEM rates, with same-day quote evaluation upon equipment receipt and a 90-day conditional warranty on completed work. It supplements repair revenue with direct sales of replacement cables and equipment for Stryker, Smith & Nephew, and Storz endoscopic camera platforms. All operations run from a single Florida headquarters, with services delivered via mail-in work orders to customers across North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and Australia.

LSVR's go-to-market is direct and field-sales oriented: customers reach the company via a toll-free phone line, email, web contact forms, or an online work order form, and equipment is shipped in for evaluation. The company targets two primary segments — hospitals and surgery centers requiring endoscopic video equipment repair, and third-party medical equipment service providers seeking a cost-effective alternative to OEM service. There are no public filings, no external funding, no disclosed customer logos, and no AI/digital product layer; the business is a focused, privately held specialty repair operation.

Broad incumbents

• Conmed: Medical device OEM with a LINVATEC endoscopy product line that LSVR services (camera heads, couplers, processors). Conmed's own service organization is the primary OEM alternative for those repairs.
• STERIS: Global medical equipment OEM and service provider with a substantial sterile processing and endoscopy service line. Competes with LSVR for hospital service contracts and is also one of the brands (Steris-Vividimage) whose monitors LSVR repairs.
• Karl Storz: Leading endoscopic equipment OEM. LSVR sells Storz replacement cables and services Storz couplers and image management systems, putting it in direct service competition with Storz's own authorized repair network.
• Smith & Nephew: Orthopedic and endoscopy equipment OEM whose endoscopic camera heads, processors and 660 HD image management systems are repaired by LSVR. Smith & Nephew's service organization is the primary alternative for those accounts.
• Olympus Corporation: Dominant OEM in endoscopic imaging systems and a primary LSVR 'competitor/partner' dynamic — LSVR services Olympus equipment but Olympus offers authorized service that competes for the same repair dollars.
• Stryker: Major endoscopic and surgical equipment OEM. LSVR repairs Stryker camera heads, processors, monitors and image management systems; Stryker's own service organization competes directly for those repair contracts.

Direct peers

• TRIMEDX: US-based independent medical equipment service and asset management provider serving hospitals. Directly comparable to LSVR as a third-party alternative to OEM repair services, though at significantly larger scale and with a broader modality footprint.
• Agiliti Health: Healthcare equipment management and services company offering repair, maintenance, and clinical engineering. Overlaps with LSVR's hospital-targeted third-party repair model, but operates at national scale with bundled service contracts.
• Crothall Healthcare (Compass Group): Healthcare technology management division providing clinical equipment services including repair to hospitals. Competes with LSVR for third-party medical equipment service contracts, though at broader modality and national scale.
• Modern Biomedical: Independent third-party medical imaging and video equipment repair provider. Closely comparable business model to LSVR — multi-OEM endoscopic and surgical video equipment repair for hospitals and surgery centers.
