Low Vision Exam

Enhance Your Independence with Our Low Vision Exam

Low Vision Exams Enable Tools for Independence

Are you struggling with reading, watching TV, or recognizing faces due to vision loss?

We specialize in helping people make the most of their remaining sight. Our Low Vision Exam goes far beyond a regular eye check-up—it’s a personalized experience designed to support your independence and improve your quality of life.

What Happens During Your Low Vision Exam?

1. Vision Assessment

We begin by assessing your current visual abilities using tools tailored for low vision. This in-depth evaluation helps us uncover any usable vision that may be overlooked in a standard eye exam. We also fine-tune your glasses prescription to ensure it’s as accurate as possible.

2. Understanding Your Vision Goals

Next, we take time to understand the daily activities that matter most to you—whether that’s reading, cooking, using a computer, or recognizing loved ones. You're encouraged to bring in real-life examples like books, recipes, or hobby materials to help us personalize your care.

3. Hands-On Trial of Low Vision Tools

Based on your assessment and goals, we explore various low vision glasses and assistive technologies in the clinic. You will have the opportunity to try different options to find the best fit for your lifestyle before any device is ordered. Our approach ensures that the devices recommended will help you reclaim the ability to carry out tasks that are important to you.

4. Custom Fitting and Training

Once suitable devices are trialed and selected, we provide custom fitting and personalized training to help ensure your new low vision aids are used effectively. This training is essential to maximize your comfort and independence. 

What You Can Expect

- A patient-centered 90 minute exam focused on your unique vision and lifestyle needs.

- Exploration and demonstration of devices before any purchase.

- A partnership approach to find practical solutions that enable you to perform daily tasks more independently.

Our goal is to empower you with the best tools and training to make the most of your vision.
