eSight Go - Wearable assistive electronic glasses
Take control and maintain your quality of life with the easy-to-use design of eSight Go. eSight Go uses a powerful camera, optics and proprietary software to help enhance your vision. eSight Go is wireless, so you have the freedom to move around and get back to an active life.
Our innovative wearable assistive device or electronic glasses can help people with significant central vision loss and legal blindness achieve up to 20/20 enhanced vision. eSight Go™ glasses are lightweight, sleek, and comfortable, seamlessly moving with you from indoor, routine activities to outdoor, physical environments. A small, high-speed, high-definition camera captures everything you are looking at. Our advanced, clinically validated algorithms optimize and enhance the footage. It is then presented on two OLED monitors, one in front of each eye, in real time. Your brain synthesizes the images, and you see with clarity what is in front of you. In doing so, eSight delivers life-changing results for thousands of people with macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, Stargardt disease and more.
eSight provides unprecedented improvement in a wide range of visual performance measures for patients with one of over 20 different eye conditions associated with central vision loss.¹ eSight is a class 1 medical device that is registered with the FDA and EUDAMED, and inspected by Health Canada.
