Good. Back in 2015-2016, I worked on an app that improved user's vision. Genuine science, publications in peer-reviewed journals (even Nature). But the whole category was a vast ocean of bullshit apps, and our product just sank in it, unable to differentiate itself and prove to the users that it was the real thing.
The papers are mentioned here:

Unfortunately, no. Company was called InnovisionLabs, renamed GlassesOff, if I'm not mistaken. Website is down, and I wouldn't expect it to be up — company's runway ended about 2016. And the two apps we released (one looking like a game with some basketball player branding, and another one from scratch, with clean, medical design) are probably removed from app stores too.
What was the mechanism that improved vision? I have worked on medical devices and of course waiting on a clinical study is difficult for any business and many fail for one reason or another. But as an ecosystem for medical software Apple does quite a lot of damage compared to conventional platforms.
Got any links to the research? My vision sucks.
