Eye Test at Home & Exercises

EyeCare Pro is not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any condition, and it does not replace an eye examination by a qualified eye-care professional. It is a screening and tracking tool for noticing changes in your vision between real eye exams.

Run an eye test at home in about two minutes. Your front camera checks how far you are from the screen and holds you there while you test, so the result means something. Then eye exercises for the ache a long screen day leaves behind.

Most people only notice a vision problem once it is obvious. This is the step in between: a test you can repeat every few weeks and compare against your last one.

WHY THIS ONE IS DIFFERENT

Most home vision apps guess. This one measures.

- Your screen is calibrated in millimetres. Hold a credit card against the display once, and every chart is drawn at its true physical size on any phone.

- Your camera checks your distance, live, before every test. Enter your own pupil distance and it gets more accurate still.

- Every result says how far to trust it. A confidence badge tells you whether the screen was calibrated and the distance verified — a guess and a measurement are not the same thing.

- Prefer the old way? Manual distance mode is still there.

7 EYE TESTS

- Visual acuity — Sloan letters, the set clinical charts use, or the Tumbling E for children who cannot read yet. True physical size, one eye at a time, scored as 20/x.

- Colour vision — 38 shuffled Ishihara-style plates, red-green and blue-yellow. Kids Mode swaps the digits for animal shapes.

- Astigmatism — a fan chart, one eye at a time, showing the direction of the lines you marked.

- Contrast sensitivity — fading letters with brightness locked, and an honest note when your display, not your eyes, is the limit.

- Amsler grid — hold the centre dot, mark anywhere the lines look wavy or missing.

- Near vision — reading sizes at your chosen distance, sized so your phone's font setting cannot flatter the result.

- Duochrome — the classic red-green comparison, kept for interest. A phone cannot make it reliable, and the app says so.

8 WAYS TO EASE SCREEN STRAIN

Eye exercises will not change your prescription. They do help with the tired, dry eyes a long day at a screen leaves behind.

- 20-20-20 break timer, at 15, 20, 30, 45 or 60 minute intervals

- Blink training — a thin bar reminds you to blink fully while you read

- Focus shifting between a near and a far target

- Eye rolling, both directions, adjustable speed

- Palming, 60 to 120 seconds, with a breathing guide

- Figure-8 tracking, scored out of 100

- Zooming, a near-far thumb drill

- Directional stretches across 8 directions

SEE WHAT CHANGES

Acuity, near vision and contrast each plot on a timeline, so you see drift instead of guessing at it. Every result records whether you wore glasses or contacts, so corrected and uncorrected runs are never averaged together. Daily streak, weekly goal, badges at 7, 30 and 90 days, Sunday recap. A short monthly dry-eye check shows whether any of it is helping. Export a one-page PDF for your optometrist — free, nothing to unlock.

PRIVACY

Camera images are processed on your device and are never uploaded. No account, no sign-up. Your results stay on your phone.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Can this replace an eye exam? No. Use it to notice a change, then book a real eye exam.

Will eye exercises improve my eyesight? They will not change a prescription. They help with tired, dry eyes after long screen sessions.

WHEN TO SEE A PROFESSIONAL

Book an eye examination if you notice sudden vision changes, flashes, new floaters, eye pain, or a difference between your two eyes — whatever this app shows. Home screening cannot rule anything out.
