LOW VISION SERVICES

People who have lost eyesight due to injuries or eye disease need special products and devices to help them function as independently as possible. We offer a full range of these products through our office.

Our paraoptometric staff is trained to demonstrate the use of many of these devices. These low vision aids can range from simple hand magnifiers to a closed circuit TV system. We can also provide guidance toward products currently available to assist you in meeting the vision demands of your daily tasks and activities. In some cases we can set up a program for the low vision patient with the National Library of congress to receive "books on tape," a service for the visually impaired.
