The .vision domain, defined
.vision is an open generic top-level domain that sells one idea twice — eyesight for the optical trade, and foresight for technology brands. Identity Digital's registry description names opticians and optometry clinics, healthcare providers, insurance providers and glasses retailers, online and brick-and-mortar; the same word has since made it a favourite of computer-vision and AI companies.
The delegation report of 7 February 2014 assigned the string to Koko Station, LLC, it entered the DNS root on 11 February 2014, and a 2018 consolidation brought it under Binky Moon, LLC, the Identity Digital company that manages it today with .care and .clinic among its siblings.

Who registers .vision in India — eye care first, AI second
Indian registrants cluster in two camps: the optical and eye-care trade, and computer-vision technology firms that like the word's double duty. For the first group the label is a signboard; for the second it is a positioning statement.
| Registrant | Name idea | What the visitor concludes |
|---|---|---|
| Optometry chain or eye clinic | drishti.vision | Sight care, with an Indian word for sight |
| Optical store selling frames and lenses | framehouse.vision | Eyewear catalogue before the first click |
| Retina or super-speciality practice | retinaclinic.vision | Medical focus stated plainly |
| Computer-vision startup | sightai.vision | Vision systems and AI in one label |
| Assistive-tech project for low vision | brightfuture.vision | Purpose-driven product identity |
| Contact-lens subscription service | lensbox.vision | Recurring lens deliveries |
For optical e-commerce one practical note: selling contact lenses and prescription glasses in India involves prescription and pharmacy-adjacent rules that vary by state. The domain neither requires nor replaces that compliance — it only names the trade.
Costs: .vision prices and holding scenarios
At WebJi®, .vision lists at ₹4,562 to register and ₹4,846 to renew each year, before 18% GST, per the billing read of 4 November 2026. The gap between the two figures is small, which makes multi-year holding predictable: a three-year name costs ₹14,254 (₹4,562 + ₹4,846 + ₹4,846) and a five-year name ₹23,946 (₹4,562 + four renewals) as planning scenarios, not prepaid packages.
| Extension | Registration (₹) | Renewal (₹) | Reads as |
|---|---|---|---|
| .vision | 4,562 | 4,846 | Sight, or foresight in tech |
| .care | 4,562 | 4,846 | Broad health and caregiving |
| .clinic | 9,471 | 11,374 | Facility-first medical identity |
| .digital | 2,722 | 3,289 | Tech transformation, cheaper |

Rules and requirements to register .vision
There are none beyond the universal ones: no optical licence, medical registration or tech credentials are checked, and any person or entity anywhere may register. First paid order owns the name.
- Accurate contacts: WHOIS data must be correct, and the registrant mailbox must receive verification and renewal mail.
- Holders: individuals, clinics, companies, LLPs, societies and trusts, Indian or foreign.
- Transfers: EPP code and email approval; the transfer adds a year, with ICANN's 60-day lock after registration or transfer.
- DNSSEC: the signed delegation lets you publish DS records for your own zone.
Choosing between .vision, .care and .clinic
Let the practice's breadth decide: an eye-specific business earns .vision, a multi-speciality health brand fits .care, and a standalone facility communicates best on .clinic. Tech companies weighing .vision against .digital should pick by clarity — a vision-systems firm is unmissable on .vision, a general software shop is not.
- Optometrist or optical retailer — the string is the signboard; no alternative says it better.
- Eye hospital inside a larger health group — .care covers the group; .vision can host the ophthalmology department.
- Single-location clinic site — .clinic at ₹9,471 trades price for facility emphasis.
- CV/ML product company — .digital at ₹2,722 if the vision pun feels too niche for investors.
Building on the name once it is yours
Connect the domain to hosting and it resolves in hours; everything after that is ordinary website work. Clinic booking pages and lens catalogues run well on WordPress hosting, appointments@yourclinic.vision mailboxes come from business email, and vision-AI teams demoing video workloads can start on a VPS. Keep auto-renew on, browse the domain renewal guide for grace-period details, and see domain transfer for moving names from other registrars.
Frequently asked questions
Who operates .vision and since when?
Binky Moon, LLC, an Identity Digital registry company, has run .vision since the 2018 consolidation. IANA records root delegation on 11 February 2014, with the original delegation report of 7 February 2014 naming Koko Station, LLC.
What will a .vision domain cost over three years?
₹14,254 before 18% GST as a planning figure: ₹4,562 registration plus two renewal years at ₹4,846 each, from the 4 November 2026 billing read. Premium words cost more and are quoted before payment.
Can a computer-vision startup use .vision credibly?
Yes — the double meaning is the point, and AI companies have adopted the string for exactly that. Just confirm the name cannot be mistaken for an optical business in your market if that confusion would hurt positioning.
Does my optometry clinic need permission to register .vision?
No registry permission exists — the zone is unrestricted. Professional advertising rules for medical practice in India are a separate matter that governs how you promote, not whether you may hold the domain.
Is .vision better than .care for an eye hospital?
They cost the same at WebJi® — ₹4,562 registration, ₹4,846 renewal — so the choice is meaning. .vision narrows instantly to eyes and vision tech; .care stays broad for a hospital offering more than ophthalmology. Many groups register both and redirect one.
Are premium .vision labels avoidable?
Mostly, yes. Dictionary words, short strings and medical terms carry registry premiums, but brandable combinations like drishti.vision or framehouse.vision sit in the standard band. The search box shows premium status before you pay.
