As I See It
iOS Universel / Education
Hi, I'm Harry Nickerson. I'm 16 years old and I have Retinitis Pigmentosa, a rare condition that's slowly taking my sight. Explaining what I see to friends, teachers, even doctors is honestly hard to put into words, so I built an app that shows instead of tells.
Point your iPhone camera at the world around you and see what it looks like through the eyes of someone with glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, or any of 30+ other clinically-validated conditions. Adjust the severity slider to explore how these conditions progress over time.
As I See It is grounded in ophthalmological research and designed to build empathy, educate communities, and help patients communicate their experiences.
PERFECT FOR:
• Healthcare professionals explaining diagnoses to patients
• Medical students learning visual symptoms of eye diseases
• Educators teaching accessibility and inclusive design
• Families understanding a loved one's vision challenges
• Advocates raising awareness for visual disabilities
FEATURES:
• 34 clinically-validated vision simulations
• Real-time camera filtering with adjustable severity
• Video recording and sharing (up to 60 seconds)
• Educational descriptions for each condition
• Completely private — all processing happens on your device
