Artificial intelligence is reshaping healthcare, offering new ways to make medical services more accessible, accurate, and responsive. In vision care, AI is already helping close longstanding gaps in affordability and availability—barriers that have historically prevented many people from getting timely eye care.

At Eyebot, we’re harnessing this technology to bring high-quality vision care to more people, more efficiently. Our AI-powered kiosks offer a 90-second vision test that generates a doctor-verified prescription, making it easier for individuals to stay on top of their eye health in between routine visits.

Each Eyebot vision test captures high-resolution images and videos of the eyes—data that is then reviewed by licensed doctors. This allows us not only to confirm prescriptions but also to identify signs of underlying conditions like keratoconus, a rare but serious eye disease that can lead to vision loss if left undetected. Based on this detailed imaging and medical review, AI helps analyze patterns and flag abnormalities that warrant further evaluation, enhancing our ability to detect over 30 eye disorders early and accurately.

This combination of AI, clinical oversight, and detailed imaging creates a powerful feedback loop: technology captures the data, doctors verify and diagnose, and AI refines its ability to support early detection with speed and precision. It’s not about replacing doctors—it’s about equipping them with better tools to catch problems sooner and expand access to care in underserved areas.

As these technologies evolve, they’re making vision care more proactive, efficient, and equitable. At Eyebot, we believe clear vision should be something everyone can access—whether they live in a big city or a rural town. With AI, we’re getting closer to that reality every day.
