I was not able to use the product.
I suspect the problem was due to some type of 'convergence' issue with my vision. With one eye closed I could see the bars as the documentation indicated. However, when I opened the other eye, the bars, etc. disappeared. I was really hoping this product would work out for me.
The return process seemed a bit slow. I ultimately received the return shipping label, etc. It did take a few days. I am likely spoiled by the immediate way that Amazon processes returns. Something to think about.
Please keep me in mind if the product changes in the futures in a way that you think might accommodate my situation.

Excitement turns into disappointment
It is easy to purchase or return( I have not had a chance to send it back yet) the product. That is all the reason for the three stars rating. I was excited to be able to test my eyesight at home and be able to monitor any changes without going to see a doctor. However, through my experience, I can't say I have confidence with the product.
The instruction slip included in the box says search for myEqyeue in the app store. However, all I can find in the app store is eyeque/pvt. This puts doubt in me later about the compatibility between the hardware and the app. (I was later told that is the right app though.)
The video demo shows that I should see a red bar and a green bar clearly separated. My experience, through testing all nine dialed positions, is that the two bars are always overlapped to begin with. I have to press either the plus or the minus button quite a few times to see the two bars separate, yet they never totally separate. When they are 'separated' I can see red, yellow, and green. When they are manipulated into the overlapped postion, I don't see a clearly yellow bar. It changes from yellow to red or green if I tilt the eye piece a little.
The initial picture, say the green bar, usually appears to one side of a circle with no corresponding red bar but with the circle partially colored in red, suggesting to me that there is some problem with whatever lens is inside.
The final prescription has the axis correct. That is, it almost matcehes my previous prescription. The other numbers (spherical and cylindrical) looks very different from my previous presciption. Here is a comparison:
my old prescription:
OD: sphere -3.75, cylinder -0.50, axis 100"
OS: sphere -3.75, cylinder -0.25, axis 75"
ADD: +2.50
eyeque/pvt test result:
Right: spherical -1.50, cylindrical -1.75, axis 102"
Left: spherical -1.25, cylindrical -1.50, axis 74"
NVADD: +2.50
It looks like my eye doctor and Eyeque uses different numbers as base, that explains the cylindricals have the same difference between the right eye and the left eye. But it does not explain why the sphericals are the same by my doctors presciption and not the same by PVT.

Slow shipping - asked to review and no order in hand as of yet.
I have not received my order yet that I placed on May 27th, so I cannot review this item. Shipping so far has been disappointing. Not sure when I will receive the kit, but looking forward to it. Thank you.
Response from EyeQueJun 17, 2020
Hello there, thank you for your review. We're sorry about the inconvenience of receiving these emails while not having the product in hand. Unfortunately, COVID-19 had caused delays with deliveries due to changes in the policies/procedures and staffing of all of the couriers (USPS,UPS,FedEx,DHL, even Amazon). Nonetheless, I'm glad your order made it it you. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions.

Creating an account was not very…
Creating an account was not very user-friendly, I had to do the captcha human verification a couple of times before I was able to successfully create an account.

Hi Jessie, thank you for letting us know about the captcha issues. We will be sure to investigate this further. If you have any other questions about the products or apps, please be sure to contact us at [email protected].

Failed to allow the use of PayPal
When I tried to use PayPal (using Edge Chromium, which is essentially a skinned version of Chrome) the site failed to load PayPal and then reset the entire checkout process so I had to enter everything again. I tried twice with the same outcome, and ultimately had to use a credit card instead.
Response from EyeQueApr 21, 2020
John, sorry to hear that you had trouble with PayPal. This could be a PayPal specific issue. However, we have passed this information to our support team so that we can investigate what could be going on. Thank you so much for bringing this to our attention. Feel free to email us anytime with any more questions at [email protected].

Hi David,
We have a couple of ways to set up an account. `
1. through Eyeque.com
2. through the app
Either way you choose, you will need to confirm your account via email.
We do this for security reasons. But we're glad you were able to get set up. If you have any specific suggestions to improve, please don't hesitate to email us at [email protected]! Thank you!

promo code invalid!
Purchase was simple but promo code that was advertised at top banner (for a free unit) was not available at checkout. Very disappointing!!!
Response from EyeQueApr 21, 2020
Hi!! We're so sorry about that. Our Free PVT offer is only valid for US shipping. When you click on the banner, it takes you to a blog that states this. But your feedback is very valid, we are currently working to update the banner to make it more obvious this is for US shipping only. Thank you for bringing this to our attention!

Discount Code Works Only In The Last Screen
If you apply the discount code in the first screen, the application would reject saying "invalid code". I had to research the issue and figured that I have to come to the last screen and then apply the code there - and it worked.
Response from EyeQueApr 21, 2020
Hi James, that's correct. The code works on the final check out page because the offer is only valid for US shipping only. So, we need your address before the code applies! Sorry for that confusion. Let us know if you have any other questions/concerns :)
