About Us

Much like non-contact tonometry, Cronea has no meaning nor does anyone take responsibility for its existence.

Despite this, Cronea’s objectives are the same as that of every other global eye care company – to eventually sell to Essilor for 1 billion dollars. If you are the CEO of Essilor, please make this inevitable offer via our Contact Us page.

Dr Leroy Maverick, 90% eye doctor / 10% pineapple

Leroy Maverick (Founder)

Leroy Maverick was born as a result of a terrible laboratory accident whereby the sperm of an ophthalmologist met the ovum of an optometrist. Fearful of what might eventuate from something so clearly forbidden by nature, his zygote was transferred to a secretive government facility in the desert. Four months later, Maverick emerged from the cavernous facility as a fully formed man with all of the skills and abilities of both an ophthalmologist and an optometrist. Maverick is considered the first ophthalmology-optometry hybrid human in history.

Maverick’s career in eye care has been controversial. Following his stint as clinic director at a prestigious hospital eye clinic, all other eye doctors resigned due to feelings of their own inadequacy when compared to Maverick’s immense clinical skill-set. Maverick has also been known to cross-link a patient’s cornea with his own death-stare, and it is said that myopia is too scared to progress in his presence.

Some other key facts about Leroy Maverick:

  • His blood atropine concentration is 1%
  • He once killed a man during cover test
  • Patient’s pupils dilate when he enters the room
  • His eyeballs are registered with the FDA as novel medical devices
  • He is one of the few eye doctors to have fathered a child in every USA state.
  • His avant-garde dress-sense including pantaloons and a legionnaires cap has been described by leading fashion designers as “ground-breaking”, “game changing” and “unnecessary”.

In 2020 tragedy struck Maverick’s life. While at the construction site of his 800th practice, a wayward set of barbecue tongs flew towards him and enucleated both of his eyes. It was at that point that Maverick vowed that if he ever learned to see again, he would commit his life to bringing humor to an otherwise sad, bleak, depressing, miserable and flaccid eye care industry. 6 days later, Cronea was born.
