Kenilworth Eye Doctor

At Visual Eyes, our Kenilworth eye doctor and the rest of our team of friendly, caring staff are here to help you through any and all of your vision and eye health related problems. One eye condition that deserves special attention is the condition known as low vision. Low vision is when you have vision that is 20/70 or worse, and that cannot be treated with the usual options like glasses, contacts, or surgery. People with low vision are either partially sighted, or legally blind. Low vision can develop because of several different factors. Some people are born with low vision, or they develop it as a result of a birth defect. Low vision can also be a part of a disease that is inherited. Some eye conditions, such as cataracts or macular degeneration, can lead to low vision as they develop and advance in their severity. Low vision can also occur as a result of complications involving diabetes. Low vision can also start as part of the aging process.

Kenilworth Eye Care

If you have low vision, you are likely to exhibit the following symptoms: loss of your central or detail vision, difficulty seeing at night or complete night blindness, loss of your peripheral vision, blurry vision, or a hazy quality to your vision. If you notice any of these symptoms consistently, you should visit our Kenilworth eye doctor for an examination at Visual Eyes. Unfortunately, low vision cannot be completely corrected, but we do have strategies that we use with their patients to help them cope with their low vision and continue to lead productive and happy lives. These treatment options include the use of reading prisms and magnifiers, switching to large-print reading materials, using high contrast watches, and using machinery that have the technological capabilities to work with the use of sound and talking.
