核心产品：艾尔兴近视弱视治疗仪，又名哺光仪（取自补充光营养，近视不再涨的理念）拥有国内医疗器械注册证，并拿到欧盟CE、英国、澳大利亚、新西兰、马来西亚、土耳其、越南，多个国家的注册证。
产品运用低强度单波长红光控制近视技术，原理及效果：通过从户外太阳光中分离出对眼睛有益的特定波长红光，照射在视网膜上，促进多巴胺的分泌，同时增加脉络膜血管网含氧量，改善眼底血液微循环，以实现抑制眼轴过度增长，从根本上控制近视增涨的目的。
国内眼科排名第一的广州中山眼科中心的临床试验数据显示，坚持使用艾尔兴哺光仪能有效控制眼轴增长。且使用方便，仅需1天2次，1次3分钟。
科研十余年，已入驻全国多家知名大型眼科专业医疗机构并开展临床科研合作，如广州中山眼科、四川大学华西医院、上海眼病防治中心、南京医科大学附属眼科医院等。全国数十家眼科研究单位用艾尔兴产品做的临床研究，在国内外期刊上已发表的科研文献，将近20余篇。

Intalight was founded by a group of scientists and industry veterans of Silicon Valley in 2014. In 2015, the company’s base of operations moved to mainland China. There are now three sites in Silicon Valley, Shanghai and Luoyang. Intalight released the first Swept-Source OCT device that combines Deep imaging depth, Rapid sweeping speed, Extensive scan range, Accurate lesion detection and Multimodal imaging capabilities, abbreviated as DREAM OCT™. To date, over 350 units have been installed in China, more than 140 papers have been published in peer-reviewed journals based on the DREAM OCT™ technology.
