Dot Glasses addresses the needs of the world’s 1 billion+ people that are visually impaired that have no access to prescription eyeglasses. We created radical, ultra-low-cost, one-size-fits-all eyeglasses that provide customized eyeglasses to even the most remote corners of the world. Combined with a simple, proprietary vision test, the DOT Glasses solution eliminates the need for eye doctors, prescription laboratories and two-way logistics when those arent available - and when the existing eye care infrastructure is sufficient, we provide our solution to dramatically lower the cost of prescription eyeglasses making good vision affordable for absolutely everyone.
