Device Launched that Enables Self-Guided Vision Tests

August 10, 2016

Smart Vision Labs has introduced the SVOne Enterprise system, a vision testing platform that could allow for self-guided vision tests.

A pocket-sized device operated on a stand, the SVOne Enterprise measures refractive error (including nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism), visual acuity and pupillary distance. It can also collect a patient’s health history and contact information. Eye doctors then access and review the patient data on Smart Vision Labs’ cloud-based telemedicine platform to issue eyeglass prescriptions.

Smart Vision Labs is currently debuting SVOne Enterprise in five New York City optical retail locations.

The core technology on the device to measure refractive error is wavefront aberrometry, the same technology used in LASIK surgery to identify the imperfection of the eyes. The company’s patented design has shrunken down the traditional desktop machines, which weigh more than 50 pounds, into a portable, mobile device that is 10 times smaller and powered by a machine learning algorithm.

Patients receive e-mail notifications within 24 hours once their prescriptions are ready, which they can access via a password-protected web portal.
