Reveal Traditional Through-the-Lens Systems: Telescope and Field Expander versions
Ocutech’s Reveal through-the-lens Galilean telescopes use the same sharp, crisp optics as the InstaMount Series but are designed to be inserted through the carrier lens in the traditional manner. They can be prescribed for one or both eyes and can incorporate eyepiece correction lenses when required. They are intended for individuals with moderate central vision loss (20/100 or better) or with tunnel vision (5 degrees diameter or wider).
VES-Explorer
The VES-Explorer manual focus bioptic telescope, available in 3x and 4x powers, offers Ocutech’s wide field-of-view Keplerian optics. As with all of Ocutech’s VES products, its small, lightweight (less than an ounce!) and comfortable design provides edge-to-edge image sharpness. Its smaller size makes it appealing to both children and adults, and its light weight makes the Explorer comfortable to be worn all day long! It is ideal for individuals with reduced vision of 20/200 or better and comes complete with Ocutech’s custom designed metal frames available in a range of styles, colors and sizes (even small sizes for kids).
SightScope Flip: Telescope and Tunnel Vision Versions

It’s easy and natural to use and can be flipped out of the way when not needed! Sharp and crisp optics provide a broad range of clear vision without focusing. Special slip-on reading caps, include prism for fusion at near, providing magnification at normal working distances for the computer, playing music, playing cards and board games and even reading. The SightScope Flip is available in 1.7x and 2.2x powers and can be prescribed binocularly or monocularly. It is recommended for individuals with vision of 20/100 (6/30) or better. It is also available as a 0.5x Field Expander for individuals with tunnel vision.
SightScope 2
The SightScope 2 is the new modern design of the SightScope. It provides the same great optics in both 1.7x and 2.2x powers and can be prescribed for one or both eyes, and can be ordered mounted on any of Ocutech’s three metal frame styles.

It’s easy and natural to use and can be flipped out of the way when not needed! Sharp and crisp optics provide a broad range of clear vision without focusing. It is ideal for normal near working distances from 40″ to as close as 13″ for seeing the computer, playing cards and board games and even reading. The SightScope NearView offers magnification powers from 1.8x to 2.6x based upon the working distance. It is recommended for individuals with vision reduction of 20/100 (6/30) or better.
VES-Mini
The Ocutech 3x VES-Mini is the smallest, lightest, widest-field Keplerian bioptic telescope available. The VES-Mini is only half the size of traditional Keplerian telescopes, weighs less than an ounce, and focuses quickly to as close as 9 inches! It is prescribed in a traditional through-the-lens mounting design, and can be prescribed for one or both eyes. It’s available in both black and silver. It is very popular for bioptic driving and ideal for individuals with reduced vision of 20/150 or better.
VES-II: Discontinued
The Ocutech VES-II is Ocutech’s original breakthrough Keplerian optical design bioptic that combined a telescope and periscope into a device that was lighter in weight, easier to use, and cosmetically more atttractive. While this original device is no longer manufactured, it was the springboard for the the development of all of Ocutech’s current Keplerian bioptics that have become the state-of-the-art in high quality, easy to prescribe and easy to use bioptic low vision aids.
While the VES-II is now discontinued many are still in use worldwide. Parts are available for repairs and limited replacement.
VES-K
The VES-K manual focus Keplerian bioptic telescope, available in 3x and 4x powers, offers Ocutech’s wide-field Keplerian optics. As with all of Ocutech’s VES products, its small, lightweight and comfortable design provides edge-to-edge image sharpness. Patients can wear the VES-K all day long. It is ideal for individuals with reduced vision of 20/200 or better.
InstaMount Series
The Ocutech InstaMount Series offers a quick, convenient method to attach a monocular Galilean telescope to the front of an eyeglass lens. It is available as a 2.2x Telescope (TS) or a 0.5x Field Expander (FE). These can be attached to eyeglass lenses either by permanently mounting the device to the uncoated eyeglass lens using prescriber-applied self-adhesive flanges, or attaching the telescope to the front of magnetic clip-on frames (The On & Off Bioptic) using either the self adhesive flanges or by drilling through the eyeglass lens in the clip. The “On&Off” option allows the telescope to be easily removed when not needed. A convenient demonstrator clip makes it easy for the prescriber to position, demonstrate and order the device.
Tunnel Vision Aids
Visual field expanding aids make images smaller to enable individuals with tunnel vision from Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) and other tunnel vision disorders to enhance their peripheral field awareness to travel more safely and to locate objects beyond their narrow field of view. Ocutech offers three Visual field expanding products- The Field Viewer, Image Minifier (IM), and the Field Expander (FE). Both the IM and the FE can be prescribed in several different methods.
Ocutech Frames
Ocutech offers three metal frame styles that are compatible with all Ocutech telescope products. We also offer replacement plastic frames for our discontinued VES-II product.
