Amazing
I’m glad that i Find this app. They were charging me for my PD!!
Lens Scanner
The lens scanner is so bad. i tried multiple times and it refused to work
Do I use 63 or 62.5
Omg, I did this 10 times in a row, same location, same lighting, everything! 5 of them said 63.0 and 5 of them said 62.5 so which one do I use! Haha Reading reviews some people were concerned about information issues or privacy issues! I used my drivers license because my state is one that has the magnetic strip on the back! I guess that I didn’t think much of it when I did it but honestly, all of the information on your drivers license except for the license number is public information anyway! But using the license number is only going to get you the public information anyway! I’m just glad that I didn’t use a credit/debit card! But the developers response to those reviews say that they don’t use that information anyway but if it’s a concern, use your drivers license if your state puts the strip on the back!
inconsistent
inconsistent PD results — would not trust when ordering expensive glasses online. also does not support scanning higher Rx. would be great if it worked though!
PD not as accurate as it should be
2 other apps agreed within 1 mm of what my eye Dr gave me. This one was off by 4mm which is enough to mess up a prescription. Also getting it to calculate was overly fussy.
Nice tool
I needed a PD measure and it’s so easy to use!
The scanner
This app sucks. It does not scan my glasses at all and I’m doing everything right as being told. I do not recommend this app.
Good app
Really easy to do but you have to close out of the app in order to start again. There should be an option to restart or close
Simple
Wondering if this was a grade school project?
Thank you!
Thank you for existing. The only thing I will recommend (if possible) is to please add a “back” button, since I was stuck for a moment and couldn’t go back so had to close and open again. But the add is really easy to use. Thank you.
Trash app
Doesn’t register anything. Sitting there with a card on my forehead for 5 minutes like a j.a.
Very helpful but please allow a back button
This seems like a wonderful app, but it’s really annoying that there is no way to back out of the system once you’ve begun. I got three steps into the process for checking my Rx and realizing I didn’t have my glasses with me after all, and couldn’t get out of it without unloading the app and redownloading it. Then I measured PD and wanted to do a second measurement and couldn’t get off the results screen. How ridiculous. All you need is a “home” option. How hard is that?!?
No need to freak out
My optometrist didn’t provide my mono PD! Turns out, I can use this app and easily get it! I’m so grateful!
Never works
I've tried this several times but ca never get past the scan your card phase. Gave up
So easy
I used the app so I could order glasses online. My optometrist would only provide PD if I bought glasses from them. Used this app, so happy.
Frame scanning tool times out
Frame scanning tool times out. Cannot complete the process.
Easy app to use
Got the PD & was fast & easy!
Extremely frustrating
After a half hour of struggling to get my lenses lined up perfectly, the app tells me my prescription is out of scope.
Life Saver
Very helpful
Concept great. Results no.
Constantly needs to restart due to lost connection to computer. Doesn’t want my lens to be scanned without me paying
Very helpful
This app help me a lot!!
First review I’ve left in 5 years.
No matter what I change, it keeps repeating the same instructions at me over and over again. Eventually it just bugs out and kicks me from the app.
FREE!!!
this is the only app i could find that does free PD measurements
Terrible
Image is blurry when it looks just fine
Couldn’t be easier!
Took 2 minutes.
User Frustration
This really doesn’t work well. Who knows how accurate the PD thing is (I don’t have the measurement from my doc), but it seemed at least within the same ballpark when I tried to measure manually. It was a horribly frustrating process, though. I tried the lens scanner to see how accurate that was for comparison. It made me restart soooooo many times, and when I finally got through it all and it was calculating, it said there was an error and that I’d need to restart. It had already been 30 minutes at that point, so I gave up. The process was physically difficult for me, and I’m relatively able bodied, and my prescription is pretty mild. I can’t imagine how others would do this, especially those who can’t see without their glasses.
