Bright Eyes Family Vision Care Now Offers Breakthrough emPower! Electronic Eyeglasses to Patients in Tampa Bay
Tampa, FL, October 05, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Bright Eyes Family Vision Care a leading optometric practice located in the Westchase community, today announced that it will carry PixelOptics’ revolutionary emPower! eyeglasses, the world's first and only electronic focusing prescription eyewear. emPower! are now available at at a price of approximately $1350 per complete set, including frames, lenses, coatings, charger and all electronics.
Similar to today’s consumer electronics, emPower! eyeglasses features include: a microchip, composite lenses with a thin transparent LCD-like layer, miniature rechargeable batteries, and a micro-machine accelerometer to detect tilt. The microchip, micro-accelerometer, and miniature batteries are hidden inside the temples of the eyeglass frames. The transparent liquid crystal layer in each lens is able to electronically activate the reading portion when the wearer needs it. Turning the reading portion on or off happens virtually instantaneously. There are no visible moving parts or noises. Wearers can operate the glasses in three different modes: manual on, automatic and manual off. emPower! eyeglasses look and feel like designer eyeglasses. They are shock resistant and waterproof. One charge of the battery allows for two to three days of operation.
Experts believe emPower! will become the choice for the tens of millions of consumers that suffer from presbyopia, the diminished ability to focus on near objects that affects many starting around the age of 40. Unlike the typical corrective lenses, emPower! eyeglasses provide a wider field of view, less distortion and alleviate common side effects associated with progressive lenses and bifocals used to address presbyopia.
“I’m thrilled to among the first optometrists in the world to offer my patients this fashionable, breakthrough eye care technology that will undoubtedly change the way they think and feel about their eyeglasses and improve their daily lives,” said Dr. Bonilla-Warford owner of Bright Eyes Family Vision Care.
“Thanks to recent advances in consumer micro-electronics, emPower! reduces vision compromises and improves the vision experience of prescription eyeglass wearers,” said Ron Blum, founder and CEO of PixelOptics. “emPower! represents a quantum leap in optical technology that addresses the needs of a huge segment of the consumer market suffering affected by presbyopia.”
