Creal announced a license agreement with Zeiss with the aim to create a digitized vision care platform. By leveraging Creal’s light field display technology, Zeiss will bring to market devices that allow for the digital examination of eye conditions as well as virtual simulation of classic ophthalmic lenses, contact lenses, and the like.

Through the integration of Creal’s light field display into vision test devices, Zeiss says it expects to introduce a solution allowing for precise digital diagnosis of eye defects. By replicating real-world light to provide digital imagery with genuine depth, Creal’s 3D display will enable the digital replication of any physical or theoretical lens, allow test procedures to be tailored to any age group/customer segment, as well as enable the projection of automated content, limiting the need for clinical resources overall.
