Press Release
From Magnifiers to Braille, OcuTrade.com Auctions New and Used Adaptive Products for Vision Impairment
OcuTrade (www.ocutrade.com) is an internet based auction for those who wish to buy or sell products for low vision and blindness. Not only a resource to the individuals who have the vision loss, OcuTrade may also be used by their caregivers, educators, agencies and the vendors of products for vision impairment. OcuTrade currently has auctions of the following; magnifiers, video magnifiers, scanning technology, notetakers, Braille as well as Braille displays, printers and writers.
Walnut Creek, CA July 12, 2004 -- Used products for the visually impaired become available when users upgrade to newer technology, current technology is no longer useful, or the unfortunate passing of the user. Since new technology can frequently be out of financial reach for individuals on fixed incomes, purchasing used items is often a necessity rather than an option. OcuTrade's auction services allow buyers to purchase items through the auction process at the best price possible.
"According to the Alliance for Aging Research, every day over 12,000 people turn 50, and over 6000 turn 65," explains Dr. Lou Lipschultz, president and founder of the parent company OcuSource.com. "Coincidentally, that's right about the age range where diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration begin to show up more frequently. The need for adaptive devices and treatment is on the rise, and OcuSource has established itself as the key resource to assist individuals in finding the right solutions to adapt to their loss," states Lipschultz.
OcuTrade.com is filled with all the capabilities of the big competitors with lower prices. What separates OcuTrade from other auction services are its targeted audience, search-by-features capability, and its integration with the other resources on the various
websites. New equipment is also available on OcuSource via "PAT" the Product Analyzer Tool, found on most pages of the websites. PAT is a comprehensive database of adaptive technology. By providing manufacturers their own "store" OcuSource in turn creates a catalog of each product by category and feature. This enables the enhanced search capability and the ability to help the user decide which product is the "best fit".
"Used blindness and low vision devices can be found all over the country. The problem is finding it. Now OcuTrade provides consumers with a dedicated destination to buy or sell these products," states Lipschultz. "We market OcuTrade worldwide to agencies, organizations, vendors and eye care professionals, as well as to consumers and their caregivers. We've built a cost effective, one-stop location that is the ideal place to buy and sell used adaptive equipment," states Lipschultz.
