Who Provides Low Vision Care?
Doctors of Optometry who specialize in low vision
care are skilled in the examination, treatment and management of patients with
visual impairments not fully treatable by medical, surgical or conventional
eyewear or contact lenses. Each type of low vision problem requires a different
therapeutic approach. A thorough examination by an optometrist, which will also
include tests to determine the patient's current vision status, may also include
a vision rehabilitation program to enhance remaining vision skills.
