What would you like to know
Low vision is a condition where an individual experiences significant visual loss that cannot be fully corrected with standard glasses, contact lenses, medication, or surgery and requires comprehensive eye examination and intervention by a low vision specialist.
While low vision cannot be cured, we can improve their quality of life with the right combo of treatment, aids, and rehabilitation.
At the first visit, a detailed assessment of your visual function, discussion of your specific needs, a personalized plan & interventions to address your vision challenges will be given.
Low vision aids are designed to enhance remaining vision, enabling tasks such as reading, writing, and daily activities to be performed, effectively.
Patients are given training in use of devices, help in academics, referral for other supportive services like scholarships etc
