Description
Braille Institute's VisionSim (v3.0) app for iPhone and iPad was developed to allow people with healthy vision to see the world through the eyes of a person experiencing one of nine degenerative eye diseases. The eye diseases that are simulated are: age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, chronic open-angle glaucoma, corneal edema, diabetic retinopathy, homonymous hemianopia, macular degeneration, retinal detachment, retinitis pigmentosa.
The application uses the camera in the iPhone or iPad along with digital filters to allow the user to experience the symptoms of a particular disease. Using sliding touch-screen controls, the user can manipulate the severity of the symptoms. Still images from the simulations can be saved by the user and stored or shared.
(Note: iOS version 6+ users - In order to save your VisionSim 'simulator' images, you must go to SETTINGS > PRIVACY > PHOTOS > turn VisionSim 'ON')
The application also provides detailed information about each of the eye diseases including associated visual phenomenon, symptoms, causes and treatments. The user can also access Braille Institute's website or contact Braille Institute directly via email for more information.
This application was designed to foster understanding and compassion for the millions of people affected by these eye conditions.

poor implementation
Great idea, good functionalities with poor implementation that consumes device's memory. I've never faced such memory consumption from any other application!

Best Way to Illustrate a Point for Vision Impairment Advocacy
One of the hardest parts when discussing the Affects of sight loss comes when describing what it looks like to loook through the optical system of the impacted person. With this app, all one needs to do is point and gaze as the iPad's screen. Even better yet, the app allows to show how a condition progresses from minimal sight impairment to the end stages of the most common conditions. For greater affect during a presentation, one simply needs to connect the iPad into a prjector or large screen, thus enabling a much larger view of life with a condition.
Thank you very much for developing this app.

Simulator Crashes
I give credit for the informational service this app provides, but I have been very disappointed in the simulation, which has never worked after multiple attempts. In addition, the app crashed during several of those tries. I installed this app to better understand macular degeneration. Instead, I get error messages on my iPad mini saying that system memory is low on my device and that the simulator is being turned off. If this device doesn't work on all Apple devices, the product description should indicate that. Better still, I hope the developer will make the appropriate adjustments and fixes so this app can realize its full potential.

Fantastic educational tool!
"What can you see?" Is a question I'm asked on a daily basis, due to working in a public place with a guide dog. "There's an app for that!", breaks the ice and educates others about my retinitis pigmentosa in an amazing way. The app works flawlessly on my 5s. Thanks to the VisionSim team for an app that helps others grasp a difficult concept and how much impact vision loss can have. kudos!

Love this but there could be better changes
When you reverse the contrast on the app it doesn’t show the whole app in reverse contrast, only the settings page. Also when you click more info on any eye disease it doesn’t say anything besides the whole Lorem ipsum dolor thing. However I am so happy I found this app I’ve had it awhile ago and I missed having it.

Powerful tool
We've been designing materials for seniors for years, and visual acuity has long been an issue. This is an excellent way to experience the effects of aging eyes, and, of course, of more serious eye diseases. Very easy to use, very clear app. Well done.

Great App! Love the update.
This app is great. Works very well on my iPhone 4S. The sims are solid and the information is solid. Really interesting to see life through the eyes of someone with one of these eye diseases. Quite good. Highly recommend.

App needs update!
The app doesn’t currently work with iOS 11! Sadly until it is updated most of us can not open the app. Please update this wonderful educational tool!

I really wish this app worked
I was born with a cataract in my right eye, and I just recently heard about this app that can show people what it’s like to look at something with my vision but every time I take a pic the app just closes.

What happened
This used to be a fantastic app but it needs to be updated. The app worked fine on my previous iPhones but I recently got an iPhone 6 and all the app produces now is a red target circle. It worked spectacularly on my previous iPhones so my disappointment is acute now.
