Low Vision
Low vision is a bilateral impairment of vision that significantly impairs the functioning of the person; it cannot be adequately corrected with conventional medical or surgical intervention, or standard glasses or contact lenses.
Even today most ophthalmologists and optometrists are unfamiliar with low vision care, a service that will enable patients to utilize their residual vision to make fuller use of their educational and vocational opportunities.
