What this shows Doheny's Innovation Score is 40.0/100 (top 37% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Doheny?

Each dot is one of Doheny’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Doheny’s own 17.5 claims/patent is at or below the 17.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Doheny's grants concentrate

Doheny EYE Institute is a focused PatentsView assignee: 18 CPC subclasses with 87.2% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Doheny sits between Chemtron Research LLC and Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc..

Doheny's three-year grant acceleration

Doheny EYE Institute shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 15 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
