Visibly announced that it will provide optometrists, ophthalmologists and eye care service providers free access to the company’s “anywhere, anytime virtual test technology” amidst COVID-19.

“We are thrilled to offer Visibly to all doctors and service providers free of charge during this pandemic, which is making it increasingly difficult for patients and consumers to renew prescriptions for their corrective lenses and glasses,” Brent Rasmussen, CEO of Visibly, said in a press release.

“We recognize that the limitations caused by COVID-19 have created significant strain on the optical industry,” he continued. “We are confident that our technology will streamline the process for optometrists, ophthalmologists and patients alike, resulting in a greatly reduced lapse in service for consumers, while keeping individuals safe.”

According to the company website, the Visibly Digital Acuity Product operates under the Enforcement Policy for Remote Ophthalmic Assessment and Monitoring Devices during the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) Public Health Emergency issued by the FDA in April 2020.
