IrisVision Vista
Vista by IrisVision
The world’s first voice-first low-vision headset. Just speak, and Vista responds — reading, zooming, and adjusting for you, hands-free and in your language.
Not just a magnifier
A whole low-vision companion, in one headset
Most low-vision aids only make things bigger. Vista does far more. It combines a voice-first AI assistant, a full set of vision modes, and everyday entertainment in one lightweight headset — built around how people with low vision actually live. Put it on, speak naturally, and get on with your day.
Your built-in assistant
Meet Iris
Iris is the AI voice assistant built into every Vista. There are no menus to memorize and no tiny buttons to find — you simply ask. Iris can read text aloud, zoom in, brighten or add contrast, switch between vision modes, take a picture, tell the time, and open videos, all by voice.
Say the wake word and Iris is listening. Because the core commands run on the device, Iris keeps working even when you’re offline — so help is always a sentence away.
Just say
- Iris, read this to me.
- Iris, zoom in.
- Iris, what time is it?
- Iris, take a picture.
- Iris, switch to Spanish.
- Iris, play cooking videos on YouTube.
Naturally multilingual
Iris speaks your language
Iris understands and replies in 11 languages, naturally — no rigid phrases or robotic commands. Talk to Vista the way you talk to a person, in the words that feel like home, and switch languages any time just by asking.

See the world your way
A mode for every moment
Vista adapts to what you’re doing. Ask Iris to switch modes and the view changes instantly — camera modes for seeing the room, plus Movies, Books, Games, and Photo Gallery for time in the headset.
Scene
The everyday live view. See your real surroundings in natural, vivid color with automatic focus, and zoom in up to 14x on whatever you’re looking at.
Bubble
A magnifying bubble in the center of the Scene view — sharpen a price tag, a face, or a sign while keeping the rest of the scene around it.
Bioptic
A rectangular telescope window. Magnify a distant sign or a face while the rest of the room stays in view — size and place the box so it sits where you need it.
Reading
Ultra-high-contrast text. Start with crisp black-on-white, or switch to inverted, yellow, or green — and use Reading Line to focus on one magnified line at a time.
RP
For tunnel vision. Shrink the whole picture with the remote until everything you need fits inside your remaining field of view.
Television
Tuned for screens. Special exposure settings cut backlight glare, and the display won’t time out in the middle of your show.
Outline
For getting around. Vista traces bold, high-contrast outlines around objects and edges, with adjustable line thickness and sensitivity.
Movies
Free full-length films inside Vista. Ask Iris to search, then play, pause, and scrub with the remote.
Books
Free audio books, hands-free. Search by title, then play, pause, and skip by voice or remote.
Games
Games built for the low vision community. Play from the headset with the remote — no tiny phone screen.
Photo Gallery
Every picture you take, ready when you are. Zoom in on the details that matter to you.
Watch and listen
Movies, books, and YouTube — in the headset
Low vision shouldn’t mean missing the film, the chapter, or the clip. Vista brings entertainment into the headset — search by voice, then sit back.
YouTube
Ask Iris to find and play videos — recipes, news, music, how-tos, or your favorite channel — and watch them full-size inside the headset.
Movies
Search and watch free full-length films in Vista. The same simple controls as YouTube: ask Iris, play, pause, and scrub with the remote.
Books
Listen to free audio books hands-free. Search by title, then play, pause, and skip with your voice or the remote.
Stream TV
Bring your television, computer, or a streaming stick into Vista with the Vision Cast transmitter — enlarged and clear from your chair.
Requires the Vision Cast accessory, sold separately.
Made to wear all day
Light, comfortable, ready when you are
Vista is featherlight and well balanced, so it stays comfortable from morning to night. It starts fast, works without a Wi-Fi connection, and is controlled entirely by voice or a simple remote — no fiddly setup, no menus to learn.
Everything is designed to fade into the background so you can focus on the moment — reading the mail, cooking dinner, or catching up with family.
You’re never on your own
One-on-one help from people who get it
Every Vista comes with our community of Coaches. They meet with you one-on-one, right from the comfort of home, to help you set up your device, learn the modes, and get real results in your everyday life.
Our Coaches are themselves low-vision persons and IrisVision users — they understand the challenges firsthand, and they’re patient, encouraging, and genuinely on your side.
