VisiSharp: Low Vision Aids & Assistive Technology for Daily Living

VisiSharp delivers evidence-aligned solutions that help you use the vision you have—safely, confidently, and on your terms. Our low vision aids and training support adults living with macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and other conditions, as well as family caregivers and rehabilitation professionals focused on functional independence. We prioritize realistic outcomes, professional evaluation, and a precise fit to your tasks, environments, and goals.

Who It’s For and What to Expect

Low vision refers to reduced visual function that cannot be fully corrected with standard glasses, contact lenses, medication, or surgery. It differs from total blindness; many people retain residual vision that can be optimized with targeted tools and strategies. VisiSharp does not offer cures—we deliver practical, measurable ways to make daily activities more manageable.

Optical Aids

High-add readers, hand-held and stand magnifiers, and telescopes provide 2×–14× magnification for near and distance tasks. Anti-glare coatings, proper working distance, and wide fields of view support comfortable reading and spot viewing.

Electronic Video Magnifiers (CCTV)

Desktop and portable units offer 2×–60× magnification, autofocus, adjustable contrast, line markers, and image capture for extended reading, forms, and hobbies. Large displays and ergonomic stands reduce fatigue.

Wearables

Head-mounted displays combine magnification with enhanced contrast and variable field settings, supporting theater, presentations, or labeling. Lightweight designs and hot-swappable batteries advance all-day usability.

OCR and Text-to-Speech

Scan and listen to printed materials with high-accuracy optical character recognition. Natural voices and adjustable speech rates up to ~450 wpm enable efficient access to mail, books, and menus.

Screen Readers and Braille

Software and refreshable braille displays integrate with Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android to support writing, spreadsheets, email, and web navigation with keyboard shortcuts and braille input.

How It Works: Features That Matter

Key specifications include magnification range, contrast modes, field of view, autofocus speed, battery life, weight, and compatibility with your devices. Our low vision aids are selected for clarity, durability, and ease of use, with tactile controls, high-contrast interfaces, and training-first onboarding.

Use Cases

• Reading: Bills, books, prescriptions, and recipes with electronic magnifiers or OCR.
• Mobility & Orientation: Wearables and optical devices for signs and transit boards; not a replacement for cane or O&M skills.
• Work & School: Screen readers, braille, and video magnifiers for documents, spreadsheets, and presentations.

How to Choose

Start with a low-vision assessment by a CLVT, OT, or low-vision optometrist. We support trials and side-by-side comparisons, considering acuity, contrast sensitivity, lighting, task duration, portability, and budget. The right low vision aids balance power with comfort and fit the real environments where you live, learn, and work.

Training and Ongoing Support

Every device is paired with tailored training—setup, task practice, and accessibility shortcuts—plus remote follow-up. Warranties, maintenance plans, and software updates protect your investment and keep performance consistent over time.

Resources, Coverage, and FAQs

Many clients use FSA/HSA funds; some may qualify for vocational rehabilitation or veteran benefits depending on region and eligibility. We provide documentation to support claims. For clinical guidance, we collaborate with your care team to align device use with your rehabilitation plan.
