Augenmobil

What Augenmobil does

Augenmobil is a Switzerland-based mobile ophthalmology service provider founded in 2019, operating with a team of 7 employees. The company delivers basic eye examinations ("Mobile Basisuntersuchung") directly on-site at institutional locations such as care homes, nursing facilities, and similar healthcare settings, under a "Klassischer Modus" (classic mode) operating approach. Its core proposition is the elimination of transportation barriers for elderly or mobility-limited patients who would otherwise need to visit a fixed ophthalmology clinic.

The company's underlying technology consists of mobile ophthalmology examination equipment that enables basic eye assessments to be performed at the customer's site. The offering is structured as a single unified service rather than a portfolio of products, and is positioned around convenience and accessibility for institutional residents rather than advanced diagnostics. Augenmobil's service differentiator is its on-site delivery model, and the company describes its core feature in terms of "ease of use and implementation."

Augenmobil's business model is a professional-services revenue stream generated by performing on-site basic eye examinations for institutional clients on a fee-for-service basis. Its go-to-market is direct sales/field-based, targeting mid-market institutions within Switzerland, with marketing limited to a content-driven company website. The company is privately held, discloses no funding rounds or investors, and has not been observed expanding beyond Swiss borders or into adjacent healthcare verticals.
