Price is what the vendor listed when last checked. Confirm it with the vendor before buying.

Setup with instructions The device works without WiFi or a phone, and a family member can get it running from the instructions. But there are several reading modes, plus face and product recognition, so it takes some guided practice before you get good results. A low vision specialist can help, but it isn't required.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

The OrCam MyEye Pro is a small wireless camera that clips magnetically onto eyeglasses and reads printed or on-screen text aloud, hands free. You point at what you want read, and it works on books, phone screens, and other surfaces, close up or farther away. It can also recognize faces, barcodes, banknotes, and colors, and its Smart Reading feature lets you use voice commands to search a document or hear only the part you want. Everything is processed on the device itself, so daily use doesn't need WiFi or a phone, and sound plays from its built-in speaker or a connected Bluetooth device. Eyeglasses are included.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Attach the device to the included eyeglasses with its magnet and turn it on.
  • With a guide
    1. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to learn the pointing gestures and touch bar, and to set up face recognition and other options.
    2. Practice reading a few different items (a book page, a screen, a label) until the gestures feel natural. Plan on about 30 to 60 minutes.
