What eye conditions do eSight users have?
A typical eSight user has visual acuity from 20/60 to 20/800, some as high as 20/1400, caused by more than 20 different eye conditions including macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and Stargardt’s disease. Wearing eSight, many achieve 20/20 visual acuity making eSight an exceptional assistive technology for eye care professionals to provide to their low vision patients.

How does eSight work?
eSight’s low vision device, more commonly referred to as electronic eyewear, 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 maximizes the visual information provided to the brain to naturally compensate for gaps in the user’s field of view.
