i-See Touch
The i-See Touch offers all the benefits of the i-See basic product, together with a number of important additions. As a result, this is the perfect product for many people.
The i-See Touch is operated with user-friendly buttons under the Full HD panel that we developed in house. The Full HD camera and Full HD panel yield very sharp and stable images at all magnifications.
The i-See Touch is also available with optional controls in the table based on a wireless remote control unit. This unit, which is easy to fit in the table, has just two buttons and a dial to adjust the magnification.
The i-See Touch, like the i-See, has a fast and silent autofocus and is equipped with bright illumination that lasts the service life.

Frequently asked questions
An electronic magnifier is a magnifying aid that consists of a monitor and a camera above a table. An electronic magnifier is sometimes referred to as a ‘TV magnifier’ or ‘CCTV’ (Closed Circuit Television).
You place the object you wish to view (such as printed or handwritten text or a photo, etc.) on the table. The magnified object is then displayed on the monitor, with more contrast if you so require.
Electronic magnifiers have a range of functionality. All have a number of high-contrast modes that are ideal for reading text. These high-contrast modes increase the contrast to make the letters more legible. A range of contrasting text and/or background colours are also available. In addition to offering increased contrast, electronic magnifiers also have photo modes for the display of photos and other image material in bright colours. Electronic magnifiers with a text-to-speech function are also available.
You qualify for an electronic magnifier when you have been diagnosed with a visual impairment to a degree that makes it impossible or almost impossible to read without this aid.
First of all, people with low vision for whom glasses or a handheld magnifier is no longer sufficient. Our electronic magnifiers are used by people with disorders such as macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma and cataracts.
At home, work, school and elsewhere.
The costs of Van Lent Systems’ electronic magnifiers are reimbursed by all healthcare insurers. More information is available under the ‘your healthcare insurer’ heading on our website. The electronic magnifier must be prescribed by a specialist recognized by the healthcare insurer to qualify for reimbursement, such as the ophthalmologist or other physician who is treating you or a regional institution such as Royal Dutch Visio or Bartiméus.
This must in any case state the explicit reasons and your medical data. The applicant is usually an ophthalmologist, the physician who is treating you or an institution for the blind and visually impaired. A GP cannot usually prescribe an electronic magnifier.
Your GP will usually refer you to an ophthalmologist or other specialist. The Netherlands has a number of regional institutions that have a great deal of knowledge about aids such as electronic magnifiers and have demonstration appliances available. You can contact us for an address in your neighbourhood.
