Low Vision Assessment

Where good vision cannot be achieved with spectacles or contact lenses, patients can be assessed in our low vision clinic.
During a low vision assessment, one of our optometrists will perform an examination to identify any refractive errors (problems with focusing) and demonstrate low vision devices such as specialist spectacles, magnifiers or telescopes that could help you see better.
Electronic magnifiers are also available for demonstration, and the optometrist will also talk to you about optimal lighting and other methods to make the most of your remaining vision.
If you have Age related macular degeneration or any time of macular degneration, diabetic maculopathy, hereditary retinal degenerations or macular pathology, you may be the right person who can benefit from this service.
