According to the exchange filing, founded in 2020, iiNeer focuses on designing, manufacturing, and selling technology-enabled optical equipment, including lens-edging machines and related devices. The company reported a turnover of KRW 177.77 million in calendar year 2024.
 
Lenskart said the investment is aimed at building in-house optical hardware capabilities, particularly in lens edging systems comprising edgers, tracers and blockers. The company expects the move to enhance operating efficiencies and reduce equipment-related capital expenditure over time.
