OUR STORY
EyeControl was established in 2016 by co-founders, who all have personal connections to Locked-in individuals. Or Retzkin, CEO and Co-founder, joined together with Itai Kornberg, CTO and Co-founder, and Shay Rishoni (1966-2018), Co-founder and ALS patient, on a mission to give the Locked-in community the ability to communicate.
Their journey, addressing the communication needs of those living with ALS, evolved into an innovative ICU communication and monitoring solution.

OUR VALUES
Empowerment -
"All Voices are Heard"
The company was founded with the mission of restoring a voice to those who cannot speak;
our communication solution empowers these
individuals to be independent and active in
their lives and care. We also empower our
team to learn and grow, personally and
professionally, encouraging autonomy, open-mindedness, and freedom of expression.
Integrity
This value is embodied in professional excellence and mutual respect that resonates from our team to our clients and stakeholders. We take pride in adhering to high moral standards built upon honesty, trust, and decency; always with the mission of doing good and helping others.
Humanity
Compassion, empathy, and optimism are at the roots of this value; we are wholly dedicated to the impact our work has on individual human lives and as such on humanity as a whole. Communication is lifesaving; "when you save one life, it is as if you saved the entire world." Our humanity also manifests internally, we care about each other and interact humbly as equals.
Creative Innovation
We are driven by a vision of how the future can and should be, and value the forward- thinking mindset of accomplishing this through inventive mediums. All ideas and opinions are welcome, and contribute to our company's success.
