| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Basis of Presentation and Consolidation | 1. Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform with U.S. GAAP as contained in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and general practices within the industry. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of (RetinalGenix Technology Inc. and its subsidiary). The condensed consolidated statements are prepared in compliance with the requirements of ASC Topic 810 “Consolidation”. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
|
| Cash Equivalents | 2. Cash Equivalents
For purpose of the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
|
| Use of Estimates | 3. Use of Estimates
In preparing the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
| Income Taxes | 4. Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not have any tax expenses due to its losses, and at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 all deferred tax assets were fully reserved.
The Company follows the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Sub-Topic 740-10 Income Taxes. ASC Topic 740-10 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. It also provides guidance on the recognition, measurement, and classification of amounts relating to uncertain tax positions, accounting for and disclosure of interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosures. The application of that guidance did not result in the recognition of any unrecognized tax benefits at March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025. The Company’s policy is to expense any penalties and interest associated with this topic. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no amounts accrued for penalties and interest.

| Income (Loss) Per Common Share |
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share (“EPS”). Under the provisions of ASC Topic 260, basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. However, common shares that are considered anti-dilutive are excluded from the computation of diluted EPS. Since the Company had a loss during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the basic and diluted net loss per share is the same.
Potentially dilutive securities not included in the computation of loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2026, include stock options to purchase shares of common stock, Pre-funded Warrant to purchase shares of common stock, and warrants to purchase shares of common stock.
Potentially dilutive securities not included in the computation of loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are stock options to purchase shares of common stock, Pre-funded Warrant to purchase shares of common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock.

| Stock-based compensation | 6. Stock-based compensation
The Company recognizes expense for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Stock-Based Compensation. For stock-based awards, the Company calculates the fair value of the award on the date of grant using the Black Scholes option-pricing model. The expense is recognized over the service period for awards expected to vest. The estimate of stock-based awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual results or updated estimates differ from original estimates, such amounts are recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period the estimates are revised. Stock options granted to non-employee consultants are revalued at the end of each reporting period until vested and the changes in their fair value are recorded as adjustments to expense over the related vesting period.
|
| Research and Development costs | 7. Research and Development costs
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred in obtaining technology licenses outside of business combinations are charged to research and development expense as acquired in-process research and development if the technology licensed has not reached technological feasibility and has no alternative future use. licensed has not reached technological feasibility and has no alternative future use.
|
| Property and Equipment | 8. Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives (3 years), once the asset is placed in service. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not extend the economic useful life of the related assets, are charged to operations as incurred, and expenditures which extend the economic life are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the costs and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss on disposal is recognized in the consolidated statement of operations for the respective period.
The Company’s long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount.
|
| Leases | 9. Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is an operating or finance lease at inception under ASC Topic 842. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had an operating lease for an office suite (see Note H) and no financing leases.
Operating leases are recorded as operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities (current portion and long-term portion) on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease ROU assets and the related lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. The operating lease ROU assets also include lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the ROU asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. Leases may include options to extend or terminate the lease which are included in the operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liability when they are reasonably certain of exercise. Certain leases include lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for as one single lease component. Operating lease expense associated with minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
|
| Segment Reporting | 9. Segment Reporting
The Company identifies its business segments based on business activities, management responsibility, and geographic location. For all periods presented, the Company operated in a single reportable business segment.
The Company has one reportable operating segment based on how its Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) manages the business and in a manner consistent with the availability of discrete financial information and the internal reporting provided to the CODM. The CODM, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO), reviews detailed income statements, balance sheets, and sales reports in order to assess performance of the Company. The CODM does not review assets at a different asset level or category than at the consolidated level and the consolidated statements of operations are presented to the CODM without further disaggregation. Significant segment expenses also include depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation, which are disclosed within the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company does not have any significant intra-entity sales or transfers.

| Recent Accounting Pronouncements | 10. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard-setting organizations. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, management has not determined whether the implementation of such proposed standards would be material to the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (DISE), which specifies additional disclosure requirements. The new guidance requires additional disclosures, including the composition of certain income expense line items (such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, and “other expenses”) and a separate disclosure for selling expenses. This change is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, however, early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2024-03 will have on the consolidated financial statements and disclosures and anticipates disclosing any impact of the adoption in the annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2027. |
