NEW PRODUCT

Check out our New easyPOCKET 6x Magnifier!

The easyPOCKET hand-held magnifiers are small, illuminated vision aids that are easy to travel with due to their inconspicuous size and are perfect for use in restaurants and other dimly lit locations because of their LED light. Originally available in 2.5x, 3x and 4x magnification, we have now added a 6x to the group!

The easyPOCKET magnifiers feature a unique aspheric/diffractive hybrid lens that is distortion-free and only 3 mm thick. The lens is protected by a strong fiberglass reinforced plastic case that minimizes scratching. Bright illumination is provided by an SMD LED that never needs to be changed. Plus, the light conveniently goes on when the lens is pulled out of the built-in case, and off when it is pushed back into the case.

The new 6x easyPOCKET is available in a white case with a lens size of 50mm x 46mm. Ask your Territory Manager for more details or contact Customer Service to place an order!

SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY OFFER: BUY 3, AND GET 1 FOR FREE! (Limit one promotional offer per customer. Valid through April 30, 2023)

AMD & LOW VISION AWARENESS MONTH

February is Macular Degeneration and Low Vision Awareness Month!

Prevent Blindness, the nation’s oldest volunteer eye health and safety organization, has declared February as Age-related Macular Degeneration/Low Vision Awareness Month with the goal of educating the public about AMD and low vision, as well as providing resources for them to reference if they are living with a visual impairment.

If you have patients with macular degeneration and are not yet offering them low vision care, we can help. Eschenbach can provide you with the tools you need to run a successful low vision service. We can provide you and your staff the products, training and support you’ll need to help your patients complete their daily living tasks more easily. Contact your local Territory Manager today to learn how to add this effective (and profitable) service!

PRESCRIBING FOR MULTIPLE GOALS

Did you know that you could improve your low vision patient outcomes by prescribing multiple vision aids?

Many visually impaired patients are often provided with one solution for just one task/goal during an exam when they actually likely have multiple tasks with which they have difficulty performing. By helping your patients discover solutions to these other tasks or by providing them useful accessories for the one device you dispense, they’ll be able to become even more independent and more satisfied with your services - plus you’ll improve the financial impact of your low vision care service on your practice!

Eschenbach can help you pinpoint which devices you’re dispensing the most by themselves and then provide specific recommendations on accessories or other devices that can be dispensed in conjunction with those already being prescribed, thereby enhancing your patients’ outcome from your appointment.

Request a meeting with your Territory Manager today to learn more!
