Little eyes.
A new perspective.
Explore near and far vision with a simple illustration. Try an example or use your prescription.

A simplified optical illustration, not exactly what your child sees. The clear image is a reference, not a promise of vision with glasses.
UNDERSTAND THEIR PRESCRIPTION
Little numbers.
Simple answers.
Pull up a chair. Let's make the prescription
a little easier to understand.
A few things parents ask.
Is this what my child actually sees?＋
No. This is a simplified optical illustration. Actual vision also depends on focusing, eye health, visual development and how the brain uses the image. It cannot measure visual acuity or predict vision after glasses.
Can this tell me if my child needs glasses?＋
No. Use a current prescription from your child's eye care professional. A clear-looking simulation does not mean glasses are unnecessary, and a blurry simulation is not a diagnosis.
Why can farsighted vision look clear in the example?＋
Children may use their focusing ability to compensate for some farsightedness. The illustration uses an age-based average and cannot show discomfort, eye alignment or individual focusing ability. Follow your child's clinician's advice.
Do I need PD for this tool?＋
No. PD is the distance between the pupils and is used to position lenses when ordering. This illustration does not use PD. The optional pupil setting means the diameter of one pupil, not the distance between the eyes. Measure PD with EyeBuddy
Are my prescription and photos saved or uploaded?＋
This tool processes numbers and photos in your browser. It does not upload or save them. Choosing a photo is optional; use a scene photo, not a prescription document. Uploading a prescription to order glasses is a separate feature.
What doesn't the tool simulate?＋
It does not simulate prism correction, strabismus, amblyopia, eye disease, accurate binocular vision or the full behavior of progressive and bifocal lenses. ADD and multifocal lens zones are explained in the learning section but are not rendered in this preview.
Educational illustration only. Not an eye test or a reason to change a prescription.
