What is Low Vision?
Low Vision is an eye condition characterized by severe visual impairment — typically caused by an injury, eye disease, or genetics — that diminishes or eliminates your ability to do the activities you want to do.
Those with low vision can experience the following:
- Tunnel vision/visual field loss (inability to see well in the periphery — including blind spots)
- Legal blindness (visual acuity of 20/200 or worse in the better eye) or a field of view limited to 20 degrees or less
Glasses, contact lenses, medication or surgery cannot fully correct Low Vision.
How Can a Low Vision Eye Doctor Help Me?
We frequently see patients who feel hopeless after having been told by their eye doctor that “nothing further could be done for their vision – aside from “managing the condition”.
Let us reassure you that something CAN be done.
Dr. Harold Ashcraft can help you regain functional vision and do all the things you love to do. Let us help you begin your journey to better vision and a better quality of life.
