The CompanySince 1975, Optelec reaches out with simple and effective low vision solutions for personal, work and educational use. It all started when Mr. F.J. Tieman developed the first video magnifier for a customer who could no longer see and read with glasses. Over the years, Optelec opened offices throughout the world and developed many new product lines. Optelec’s current portfolio includes a variety of easy-to-use desktop, portable and laptop video magnifi-ers, text-to-speech devices and Braille products. With these products, users can improve their quality of life and regain their independence and mobility.

Electronic video magnifiers help users to read letters, sort out mails, manage financial transactions, prepare meals, perform hobbies and more; the pos-sibilities are endless. The desktop video magnifiers can be used at home and work, while portable video magnifiers can be used on the go.

For people who find reading tiring, there are solu-tions that read text aloud. The Optelec text-to-speech devices scan and read any printed document using a naturally sounding voice. There are more than 60 reading voices available in 30 languages, allowing users to select their preferred settings.

There are several Braille devices that can be easily connected to any PC, tablet or phone. This gives the user the possibility to be independent and flexible in the home and work environment. Portable Braille products can be connected to a smart phone and can be used anywhere, anytime.

Corporate Philosophy

“ Improving the quality of life for the visually impaired, reaching out
