BROOKLYN, N.Y. — Visual diagnostic platform Carrot announced that it has set a new record in the U.S. and Canada for visual testing. More than five million tests have been completed using Carrot’s visual testing platform across more than 2,400 eye care clinics. This sets a new record for virtual visual testing and highlights the growing demand for clinically validated, workflow-optimized, automated visual diagnostics.
The milestone reflects how vision testing is evolving in modern eye care, as practices move beyond legacy, dark-room equipment toward more flexible solutions that enable better workflows, improved patient experience and reliable clinical accuracy. It reinforces Carrot’s position as a leader in this category and as the visual diagnostic platform for modern eye care clinics.
“Five million tests isn’t just a milestone,” said Jeremy Barlow, CEO of Carrot. “It’s proof that the industry shift from expensive and inefficient tabletop perimeters to portable, automated visual testing has reached a critical stage of mass adoption. Practices are running more exams, with less staff burden, and delivering a better experience for patients, all with a platform and partner, built to scale.”
Since introducing the first virtual reality-based visual field testing solution in 2018, Carrot has expanded its platform from a limited set of exams to a comprehensive diagnostic solution. Today, the platform supports 15 exam types, including visual fields, color vision, pupillometry and extraocular motility (EOM), alongside a robust analytics dashboard, efficiency reporting and workflow automation tools designed to support modern clinical operations.
“In clinic, after comparing head-to-head visual fields, the sampled visual field results appear functionally indistinguishable from legacy tabletop perimetry,” said Dr. Andy Morgenstern, OD, FAAO, FNAP, an advisor to Carrot. “With Carrot, I’m getting the same level of clinical confidence, but with a much more convenient experience for both patients and staff.”
Following its recent rebrand from Virtual Field to Carrot, the company continues to invest in expanding its platform capabilities, including automation, analytics, interoperability and new exam development, helping practices modernize diagnostic workflows while delivering high-quality patient care.
