Improving medicine, by design

Dr. Carmon's interests sit at the meeting point of clinical ophthalmology and medical innovation - using structured methods to turn real clinical needs into better care.

The Biodesign Approach

From clinical need to validated solution

Through the Biodesign Israel program, David trained in a disciplined process for medical innovation.

Identify

Observe clinical practice closely to uncover genuine, unmet needs - not just interesting ideas.

Invent

Brainstorm and prototype solutions as a team, iterating toward something that truly works.

Implement

Assess regulation, reimbursement, and business models so a solution can reach patients.

Focus Areas

Research & innovation interests

Clinical ophthalmology

Research questions arising from everyday diagnosis and treatment of eye disorders.

Medical devices & innovation

Translating clinical needs into devices, tools, and workflows that improve care.

Data & analytics in medicine

Using analytical thinking and structured data to support clinical decisions.

Medical education

Better ways to teach the medical sciences, drawing on years of lecturing and tutoring.
