EyeCheq Kiosk | Our Work

EyeCheq is a pioneering healthcare technology company dedicated to transforming how routine eye health screenings are delivered. In partnership with Nottingham Spirk, EyeCheq has developed a breakthrough platform that reimagines equitable and accessible eye care screenings.

The EyeCheq kiosk is an autonomous, AI-enabled unit designed for deployment in pharmacies, clinics, labs, retail health settings, and health system waiting areas. It combines cutting-edge vision screening tools with intelligent design to deliver a seamless and secure user experience, at no cost to the consumer.

The EyeCheq kiosk provides non-diagnostic vision assessments and wellness screenings for adults aged 21 and over. These screenings are designed to identify potential vision concerns and guide users to appropriate follow-up care. Each session is intuitive and takes only a few minutes, requiring no direct staff supervision.

Screening modalities include:

Visual acuity assessment — Objective measurement of visual clarity
Autorefraction — AI-guided, automated refractive error measurement
Retinal imaging — Non-mydriatic, high-resolution fundus photography
Eye symptom checker — Guided questionnaire for triage support

Collected data are securely transmitted and, where appropriate, routed for asynchronous interpretation by licensed eye care professionals. Users receive a summary of findings with clear educational prompts and suggested referrals, when necessary, for in-person follow-up with optometrists or ophthalmologists.

While technology is key to EyeCheq’s success, it is designed with the user in mind.

The design team employed augmented reality and human factors design to optimize the kiosk’s form to a compact 3-ft-square footprint. It’s not just small—it’s smart. It features automatic height adjustment using AI detection, ensuring accurate screenings while providing comfort and accessibility for all users, including those in wheelchairs.

Meanwhile, the UX/UI team focused on designing an inclusive user experience for people with low vision, language barriers, or varying cognitive abilities. Users interact with the kiosk via a tablet-sized touchscreen, with visual and audio cues guiding them through each step of the testing process.

Developed by our multidisciplinary team of biomedical, mechanical, electrical, and software engineers, the EyeCheq kiosk is built for high-volume use, cloud-enabled, encrypted, and fully HIPAA-compliant.

Prototype testing yielded overwhelmingly positive user feedback, with participants citing convenience, ease of use, and the power of a free screening tool in trusted settings. For many, it was the first eye screening they had ever received.

“This could really help people like my dad, who hasn’t had his eyes checked in years,” said Luis, a college student and early tester.

“No appointments, no hassle—just quick, quality care,” said Maya, a retail manager who completed her test in under five minutes.

Currently undergoing pilot implementation with leading national partners, EyeCheq is poised to transform how vision care is accessed in the U.S. and beyond.

With Nottingham Spirk’s deep experience in healthcare and consumer product innovations, and EyeCheq’s clinical insight and AI expertise, this collaboration marks a bold new chapter in equitable, tech-enabled preventive care.

Together, we're not just screening eyes—we’re reshaping healthcare delivery, one community at a time.
