Full Diameter Telescopes

Full Diameter Telescope Low Vision Glasses are designed to provide magnification for various distances, offering versatility and clarity for individuals with low vision. These specialized glasses can be adjusted to focus at virtually any distance, allowing users to perform everyday tasks with greater visual clarity.

How Do Full Diameter Telescopes Work?

Full diameter telescopes function by using a larger lens system to magnify objects while maintaining a wider field of view than other telescopic systems. Additional prescribed focusing lenses can be used to adjust the focal length, making them suitable for both near and far viewing tasks.

Customization and Options

The Full Diameter Telescopic system is available in various sizes, shapes, frame types, colors, and magnification levels. During the consultation, the patient and Dr. Lindell collaborate to select the best system based on specific tasks and visual needs. These glasses can be customized to optimize comfort and function.
