Ocutech

Ocutech, founded in 1984, is a worldwide leader in developing advanced hi-quality telescopic low vis We welcome your inquiries.

The original Ocutech bioptic telescope, called the VES, was invented by Ocutech’s founding president, Russ Pekar, Ph.D., who is himself visually impaired. Dr. Pekar knows personally the needs and challenges faced daily by the visually impaired, and he is devoted to creating low vision aids that are effective, easy to use, attractive and comfortable to wear. Ocutech is committed to the needs of the

visually impaired and supports its products with generous warranties. Ocutech Low Vision Aids are available through doctors and clinics that specialize in low vision care throughout the world. In 1996, Ocutech received worldwide attention when it created the first and only autofocusing bioptic telescope called the VES-AutoFocus. The VES-AutoFocus development project took over 6 years and almost $1 million to complete. Now, thousands throughout the world wear the VES-AutoFocus and experience the closest to normal magnified vision possible from a low vision aid. Individuals who had never been successful with bioptic telescopes gained new-found freedom with the VES-AutoFocus. “It changed my life” many have said. In 1999 Ocutech received the prestigious WINSTON GORDON AWARD from the Canadian National Institute for the Blind in honor of its innovative work to create the VES-AutoFocus.

“I’m a current user of the Ocutech SideSight™ — it’s a game changer. I’ve had left homonymous hemianopia for 5 years, and this is by far the best device I’ve used.”
