A: No, the ForeseeHome does not require a home computer or internet connection. To start using your device, simply plug it into a power outlet.
Q: Can more than one person use a single device?
A: No. Each device is personally calibrated to a single individual.
Q: What happens if a change in my results is detected?

In the event of an alert, the Notal Vision Data Monitoring Center will contact you and your eye doctor so an appointment can be scheduled as soon as possible.
