eSight eyewear’s low vision device functions by stimulating synaptic activity from the remaining photoreceptor function of the user’s eyes. Using a cutting edge camera, smart algorithms and high resolution screens, the assistive technology can provide the brain with increased visual information to naturally compensate for gaps in the user’s field of view.
eSight is a Class 1 Medical Device.
A high-speed, high-resolution 21.5 MP camera captures and then projects real-time footage onto two OLED screens in front of the eyes. A handheld trackpad affords the user control of color, contrast, focus, brightness, and magnification to optimize the remaining vision. Prescription lenses can be crafted and installed directly into the unit.
eSight’s low vision device provides the flexibility to read books up close with the same ease as seeing a crosswalk sign from a distance. The patented Bioptic TiltTM technology, made possible by eSight’s uniquely non-immersive design, allows users to be mobile and easily adapt to face-to-face interactions.
eSight’s low vision assistive technology has been effective for a wide range of ages. Our youngest recorded user is 4 and our oldest is 101. Many of our users live with central vision loss most commonly caused by macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and Stargardt’s disease.
