 PROFILE
Even those outside California know Vision-Sciences' products are totally tubular. The company makes endoscopic tools -- tubular instruments that let physicians see into the body and perform procedures without invasive surgery. The company makes traditional endoscopes (which are cleaned and reused) and the EndoSheath System, in which all surfaces of the endoscope that contact the patient are covered by disposable sheaths. Subsidiary Machida makes flexible borescopes, endoscope-like tools used in industrial applications. Co-founders Katsumi Oneda (chairman and CEO) and Lewis Pell (VC) each own nearly one-quarter of the company.
