What is Low Vision?
Low vision is a permanent impairment that cannot be corrected with conventional treatments or lenses. It may result from conditions such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), glaucoma, cataracts, or vision loss due to injury. Symptoms of low vision can include loss of central vision, tunnel vision, blurred vision, generalized haze, extreme light sensitivity, and night blindness.
Our low vision doctors provide comprehensive exams and follow-up care to assess your eye health. They offer personalized strategies and support, empowering you to navigate daily activities with greater confidence and ease.
Visual Rehabilitation Therapy
Improve your participation in the activities that matter most. We offer occupational therapy to help identify challenging tasks and gain strategies and tools to re-engage in what’s important to you, whether it’s working, reading, cooking, or enjoying your favorite hobbies.
