Low Vision Care Centre - Hazel Sacharowitz

Of all disabilities, visual disability or low vision is perhaps the most misunderstood. 

People tend to think of it as “all or nothing” – either you are fully sighted, or totally blind with no in between. 

In fact, just like other forms of disability, low vision or partial loss of vision is very much the rule rather than the exception.

Patients with low vision often experience difficulty with everyday visual tasks such as reading, writing or watching TV. We are to assess specific visual needs and offer low vision rehabilitation and management options.
 

Management options include the various forms of magnification, contrast enhancing options as well as lighting control.
