Product Description

The USee Vision Kit combines a simple, low cost, self refraction tool (the USee™), snap-in lenses and frames color-coded to match the best visual acuity achieved while “dialing” the refraction tool, and other components such as vision charts and ready made reading glasses to provide a complete solution for distributing eyeglasses to those with uncorrected refractive error (spherical) in low resource areas. With a modest amount of training of field personnel via our online or printed materials, the USee Vision Kit makes it possible to rapidly equip virtually any network, including NGO’s, faith-based organizations, community healthcare workers, teachers, and mission-aligned private distributors to inexpensively and efficiently provide eyeglasses within their community and to quickly see positive results. Our Vision Kit is not a substitute for a comprehensive eye exam but it deals directly with refractive error/spherical power correction – the source of the majority of vision problems. This focus on correcting refractive error via eyeglasses also enables program partners to “triage” more complex eye health issues or provide referral for them.

Product Features

Designed to either create a new "spoke" in a distribution partner, or provied a smaller, stand-alone capability for smaller distribution efforts. The kit contains everything one needs to screen and distribute 40 pairs of distance glasses and 40 pairs of readers.
Multiple clinical trials (Johns Hopkins, NECO, et al) have shown equivalency to the “gold standard” for refraction but at far lower cost and with significantly less training.
Provides a full screening kit, 40 distance frames with an assortment of lenses and 40 readers in all powers found in the full kit.
Training and implementation resources readily available for interested program partners.
For the addition of a new "distribution spoke", or for a smaller stand-alone distribution capability of 80 pairs of glasses (40 distance and 40 readers)
