Bioptics (device)

Okay kiddo, have you ever heard of glasses or contact lenses that people use to see better when they have trouble with their eyesight? Bioptics is also a type of device that helps people see better, but in a different way.

Bioptics are special glasses that have a little magnifying lens added to them. This lens helps people who have difficulty seeing things that are far away. So, if someone has trouble reading road signs or watching a movie on a big screen, they can use bioptics to help them see better.

The way it works is that the magnifying lens is placed either on the top part or bottom part of the glasses. When someone looks at something far away, they look through the regular part of the glasses. But when they need to see something up close, they use the magnifying portion of the glasses.

Think of it like a superhero power that lets someone switch between seeing normal and seeing things closer up.

Bioptics are often used by people who have trouble with their eyesight but don't want to rely on bulky and expensive telescopes or binoculars. With bioptics, they can just use one device that is much more convenient to carry around.

So, bioptics is like a cool superpower that helps people see better by using special glasses with a little magnifying lens added to them!
