The low vision specialists of the Lions Vision Rehabilitation Center are committed to improving the lives of patients with chronic vision impairment. Whether the loss of vision is central or peripheral, due to age-related conditions such as macular degeneration or glaucoma, diseases such as diabetes or genetic conditions, we can offer solutions.
We understand that even if vision loss is mild, it can affect your ability to perform daily activities such as reading, watching television, walking safely or driving. We use a combination of lenses, prisms, filters, electronics and lighting to maximize a person’s ability to person common daily activities by making the most of their existing vision.
