Sight Sciences carries a genuine earnings-beat catalyst, but a Rule-of-40 failure, sustained insider selling, and an already-reached valuation target with negative near-term asymmetry keep the setup unfavorable.

About Sight Sciences, Inc.
About Sight Sciences, Inc.
Sight Sciences sells three FDA-cleared interventional ophthalmology devices — OMNI and SION for microinvasive glaucoma surgery, and TearCare for meibomian gland disease — with OMNI expected to remain the majority of revenue over the next twelve months. The company operates direct commercial teams in the United States, United Kingdom, and Germany, selling into other European markets through distributors. Sight Sciences reported a $38.4 million net loss in 2025 against a $384.7 million accumulated deficit.
Sight Sciences generates revenue from OMNI and SION sales to ophthalmic surgeons, ambulatory surgery centers, and hospital outpatient departments performing MIGS procedures, billed to Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial payors under Category I CPT codes 66174 (canaloplasty) and 65820 (goniotomy), while TearCare is billed under the newer Category III CPT code 0563T, for which reimbursement remains uneven across Medicare Administrative Contractors and commercial plans. The company's more than 100-person commercial team focuses on physician training and clinical education to drive adoption, supported by a growing base of peer-reviewed publications — 34 articles on OMNI since 2018 alone. Manufacturing is outsourced to third-party manufacturers rather than produced in-house. Looking forward, Sight Sciences is running early-stage trials for a next-generation Helix Surgical System and an OMNI 3.0 device, both first-in-human studies registered in 2025.
Show full overview
Payer policy has already moved OMNI's economics in a measurable way: CMS cut the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule payment tied to CPT code 66174 (the canaloplasty code most OMNI procedures bill under) from approximately $950 in 2021 to $545 in 2026, a decline the company says has made the code less attractive to providers. Separately, in 2023 five of seven Medicare Administrative Contractors proposed local coverage determinations classifying OMNI's canaloplasty-trabeculotomy procedure as investigational; though withdrawn, the replacement policies still bar coverage when a MIGS procedure combines with an aqueous shunt or stent, a restriction the company says has already reduced MIGS claims volumes.
