There is a very real vision health crisis happening in the world today with 2.7 billion suffering from uncorrected poor vision, 90% of whom live at developing or rural areas at the economic base of the pyramid (BoP).
One of the key barriers to bringing vision care to the BoP is the lack of affordable testing tools – an autorefractor which tests for refractive errors can cost anything from $2,000 to $20,000.
Priced at a fraction of an autorefractor, the ClickCheck™ is portable, easy-to-use and does not require electricity to operate, making it ideal for vision screening in all settings, from semi-urban areas to rural villages to the most remote of communities.
Winner of our See Change innovation challenge in 2016, the ClickCheck™ is conceptualized by TEAMS Design, an award winning design consultancy in response to the competition and was first known as QuickCheck.
After refinement and field testing by the teams from Essilor’s Base of Pyramid (BoP) Innovation Lab, 2.5 New Vision Generation and Center of Innovation and Technology, the ClickCheck™ is now available.
Recognized for its impact in bringing vision care to underserved communities, the ClickCheck™ received three wins – gold in the Medical & Healthcare category, silver in the Social Impact category and a special Jury’s Chair award – at the 2020 International Design Excellence Awards, one of the most prestigious global design awards programs.
An independent clinical study conducted by Lions Aravind Institute of Community Ophthalmology (LAICO) in India found that the ClickCheck™ demonstrates high reliability and accuracy in detecting spherical power, resulting in accurate prescriptions and is hence an excellent starting point for subjective refraction.
The ClickCheck™ is highly accurate in measuring spherical power.
The visual acuity using the corrections from the ClickCheck™ had moderate level of agreement with that from subjective refraction.
The ClickCheck™ estimates astigmatism with moderate accuracy when compared to subjective refraction and the autorefractor.
The ClickCheck™ offers highly accurate measurement of spherical power and visual acuity across all age groups, compared to subjective refraction.

Either is ok. If you prefer not to have the eye piece touch your eye lid, please keep it as close to the eye as possible.
No, both eyes need to be open during the measurement process. Please use the occluder to cover the other eye. Make sure both eyes are open.
No, this device needs to be used either in a lighted room or outside if it’s bright.
Stop immediately when the image in the middle (E) first becomes clear, do not hesitate. Do not hesitate or rotate the instrument again.
No, please contact our sale rep to request for repair or a replacement unit.
Do not touch the optical parts with your fingers; clean them with a soft cloth. The parts which come into contact with users must be cleaned and disinfected with ethanol or disinfectant wipes for medical use between each usage.
It is extremely durable. Each ClickCheck™ can be used for up to 70,000 measurements. Assuming we conduct 3 measurements per eye per user, it could be used on 10,000 users.
