Is the EyeQue subscription service required to use the EyeQue Insight?

A subscription to EyeQue’s subscription service is required to access the visual acuity test.  Each EyeQue Insight purchase comes with one year of the EyeQue subscription service for one account.  Once the subscription has expired a new subscription will be requied before further use of the device will be allowed.  The free year of subscription only applies to the first time the serial number is registered with an EyeQue account.
