Can low vision be improved even when regular glasses or surgery can't help?
In this Minnesota & Co. interview, host Jessica Fix sits down with our very own Dr. Chris Palmer and patient-turned-patient-care-coordinator Ann to discuss how specialized low vision care is helping people regain independence.
Ann shares her journey of living with Stargardt disease, an inherited eye condition that causes central vision loss. After working with Dr. Palmer, she was able to accomplish tasks she once thought were no longer possible through updated, customized low vision glasses.
During the interview, Dr. Palmer explains how specialized devices, including bioptic telescopes and reading telescopes, can help people with vision loss maximize the vision they still have. These custom low vision glasses are designed for people whose sight cannot be improved with traditional glasses, contact lenses, medication, or surgery.
If you or someone you love is living with vision loss caused by:
โข Macular Degeneration (AMD)
โข Stargardt Disease
โข Diabetic Retinopathy
โข Glaucoma
โข Retinitis Pigmentosa
โข Optic Nerve Disease
โข Or other eye conditions
..there may be options available to help improve daily activities like reading, recognizing faces, watching TV, and in some cases, even driving.
