A SIMPLE GUIDE FOR
LOW VISION PERSONS

Low vision means any vision that is adversely affecting a person's everyday life. It cannot be corrected with additional surgery or regular prescription lenses.

If your vision fits the above definition:
1) Check with your doctor to find out:

  • if he/she has done all that he/she can do,

  • if he/she can recommend a low vision clinic in your area, and

  • what your visual acuities are.

2) Call Mons International at 1 - 800 - 541 - 7903
for additional services in your area.

3) The best place to find the adaptive aids needed is a low vision facility.


IF YOU CANNOT GO TO A LOW VISION FACILITY:

GUIDELINES FOR LOW VISION DEVICES

Low vision persons need 4 major adaptive aids:

    1. Direct lighting
    2. Glare reducing filters
    3. Occluder (if one eye is much better than the other)
    4. Magnification

To make life a little easier, large print and talking devices also help.
