Anyone who would like to check their vision from the comfort of their own home may be interested in a new automated eye test called the EyeQue VisionCheck which uses your smartphone and a companion application to help check your vision whenever you like.
Using the EyeQue VisionCheck system, users can check and measure pupillary distance (PD), order glasses online using the results generated by the smartphone application, and track their vision over time with personalized reporting. This innovative device is designed to make eye care more accessible and convenient for everyone.
How EyeQue VisionCheck Works
The EyeQue VisionCheck is a refractometer that measures your refractive error, including nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. The tests provide results in the same format as a traditional prescription, allowing you to order glasses online with ease. The VisionCheck includes a patent-pending pupillary distance (PD) measurement tool, called the PDCheck, which accurately captures your PD in a matter of seconds. This feature is crucial for ensuring that your glasses fit correctly and provide optimal vision correction.
The device works by attaching to your smartphone and using the companion app to guide you through a series of tests. These tests involve looking into the device and aligning images to determine your refractive error. The app then processes the data and provides you with a detailed report of your vision. This report can be used to order glasses online or to monitor changes in your vision over time.
Benefits and Applications
One of the main benefits of the EyeQue VisionCheck is its convenience. Traditional eye exams require scheduling an appointment, traveling to an eye care professional, and often waiting for your prescription. With the VisionCheck, you can perform an eye test at any time and from the comfort of your own home. This is particularly beneficial for individuals with busy schedules, those who live in remote areas, or anyone who prefers the convenience of home testing.
Another significant advantage is the cost savings. EyeQue VisionCheck offers an affordable alternative to traditional eye exams. Early bird backers on Indiegogo can receive a 50% saving with pledges available from $35, making it an economical choice for many users. Additionally, the ability to order glasses online using the test results can further reduce costs, as online retailers often offer competitive prices compared to brick-and-mortar stores.
The VisionCheck also provides a valuable tool for tracking changes in your vision over time. Regular testing can help you detect any changes in your vision early, allowing you to seek professional care if needed. This proactive approach to eye health can help prevent more serious issues and ensure that you always have the correct prescription for your glasses.
