At-home vision screener available from EyeQue

EyeQue announced that its Insight at-home vision platform is available on its online store and will begin shipping in March.

The EyeQue Insight is a binocular smartphone-based test that consumers can use to assess their distance vision and also create a cloud-based digital vision history, according to a press release from the company.

“This binocular platform will scale to support a full roadmap of additional vision tests through software updates, providing a convenient, low-cost option for knowing if your vision is suffering, whether from incremental vision changes or from inaccurate glasses or contacts,” John Serri, PhD, chief technology officer and cofounder of EyeQue, said in the release.

He said the self-administered test can be performed in children as young as 6 years.

Insight tests for 20/20 vision in under 3 minutes, and EyeQue’s Personal Vision Tracker can be used when results of the Insight show less than 20/20 results.

EyeQue said in the release that it is on a global mission to elevate eye care.

“The company is dedicated to inspiring people to learn about and care for their eyes by putting affordable, accurate vision tests directly into their hands,” EyeQue stated in the release.
