EyeSize IRL provides two distinct user experiences: one for the eyewear shopper and one for the store associates. Eyewear shoppers follow simple instructions at an EyeSize IRL kiosk. The session takes just a few seconds, during which EyeSize scans hundreds of points across the customer’s face to capture key measurements, including nose bridge, face width, temple arm length, and pupillary distance.

A store associate can call up the measurements on a separate device and use them to recommend frames that will fit well and be comfortable. Additionally, once any shoppers needing progressive lenses decide on a pair of frames, the store associate can use EyeSize IRL for a quick, accurate, and consistent segment height measurement before putting in a prescription order.

Veero Co-Founder and CTO Stan German says that EyeSize IRL helps retail associates provide the best service and elevates the customer’s entire shopping experience.

“Customers are immediately engaged by scanning their faces and having their specific measurements form the basis for a salesperson helping them find frames that not only look good, but fit comfortably,” he said. “It shows that the retailer is going the extra mile to deliver exceptional service and customer care.”

EyeSize IRL is designed as a subscription-based, white-labeled application that can interface with existing optical Point-of-Service and Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems or run standalone for retail outlets of all sizes. It is based on Veero’s EyeSize virtual-fit solution for online eyewear retailers and leverages advanced, proprietary AI and computer-vision technology originally developed by scientists at Charles River Analytics to custom fit first responders’ and military personnel’s lifesaving PPE.

EyeSize IRL will run on iPhone 13 and 14, or iPadPro models with Truedepth sensors. Veero will offer monthly subscription licensing of the software alone or the software packaged with managed devices.

Veero EyeSize IRL demos can be arranged at veero.ai. Veero will also show demos of both its virtual and in-store solutions at Vision Expo West, September 27-30, Booth PAN2058.
