Low Vision Assessment

Patients with vision problems that cannot be corrected by surgery, medication or conventional glasses correction may benefit from a Low Vision assessment. During a low vision assessment, the remaining vision is evaluated for function. The eye exam is tailored to determine the clarity of vision at specific distances, readable print size, existing blind spots or peripheral vision loss, and optimum lighting conditions for vision.

Suitable low vision devices and/or electronic aids may then be prescribed to improve function during specific activities such as reading, watching TV, computer use also well as other daily living tasks. Our office also provides the necessary training for the use of the prescribed devices.
