Additionally, Eyedaptic launched an Equity Crowdfunding Campaign to increase awareness and introduce their advanced visual aid solution to an expanding list of stakeholders in the eye care and technology communities. Low vision is an unfortunate yet very real daily struggle for many Americans, robbing them of their independence and impacting quality of life. Conditions such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and retinal disorders are steadily on the rise and impact over 170 million people worldwide, signifying the need for a reliable, cost-effective and mobile-friendly solution. Eyedaptic uses proprietary software embedded in comfortable Augmented Reality Glasses to go beyond magnification to simulate natural vision. The patent protects Eyedaptic’s intellectual property and low vision technology including the image processing and machine learning software algorithms as well as the adaptive systems used to simulate natural vision. **About Eyedaptic** Eyedaptic is a privately held company that develops visual aid software, enabled by augmented reality hardware, for macular degeneration and other retinal diseases. The software goes beyond magnification to enable a fuller field of vision, and simulates natural vision for those suffering from central vision disorders such as AMD (age-related macular degeneration), to revitalize their quality of life.
