About us
ImproVision is a subsidiary of A. Schweizer GmbH which boasts Europe’s largest range of product solutions for improved vision. It all started more than 175 years ago and we invite you to learn more about a company that still manufactures products “Made in Germany”.
The owner-managed company SCHWEIZER was founded in Germany as early as 1840. Originally established as a glass grinding company, SCHWEIZER has since developed from a manufacturer of optical products into a leading supplier of product solutions for improved vision.
SCHWEIZER started producing magnifiers in Germany in 1945 and from then on has continuously added new and innovative products to its product portfolio. Experience, expertise, customer satisfaction and, not least, the tireless dedication of its employees have made SCHWEIZER the leading specialist for improved vision. For instance, SCHWEIZER was the first company worldwide to bring modular magnifier systems with interchangeable magnification heads on the market. In addition, SCHWEIZER set new standards – be it with the introduction of the world’s first LED illuminated magnifier or its comprehensive range of ergonomic magnifiers. In early 2017, SCHWEIZER celebrated another premiere with the launch of the world’s first illuminated handheld magnifier with inductive charging technology.

This internet-based training and information platform covers all aspects of low vision care.
