Why Choose Ocutech for Tunnel Vision?

• No batteries or electronic image processing

• Multiple prescribing options

• Designed specifically for individuals with tunnel vision

• Easy to demonstrate, fit, and prescribe

How It Works?

Optical field expansion devices reduce the apparent image size, allowing more of the surrounding environment to fit within the patient's remaining visual field.
