Refractive Error Simulator in your browser

By Team Edtoolkits · Image

See a screenshot or slide with short sight, reading-age blur or astigmatism at mild to strong levels, and check that text survives.

Use the guide alongside the working tool.

Open Refractive Error Simulator →

Pick the exam and document

Add a screenshot, slide or menu, or try the sample.

Frame and clean up

Choose short sight, reading-age blur or astigmatism (with its axis) and a strength.

Create and check

Check how much fine detail is kept and export the comparison.

Privacy and limits

Defocus is approximated with blur; the real effect depends on distance and pupil size. Not an eye test. The image stays on your device.
