Causes That Lead to Low Vision

Low vision is an eye condition that cannot be corrected with conventional eyeglasses or contact lenses. Its causes are usually due to injury, disease, or genetics and include:

Macular Degeneration: Wet or Dry
Juvenile Macular Degeneration (i.e., Stargardt’s disease, Best disease, etc.)
Diabetic Retinopathy – a complication of diabetes affecting eyesight
Retinitis Pigmentosa – leads to contraction of the visual field

Glaucoma – damage to the optical nerve due to inner eye pressure
Cataracts – a clouding of the eye lens
Hemianopsia – the loss of part of the visual field
Albinism – the lack of pigments in the back of the eye
Other Vision-Limiting Conditions

Love This Office and Staff!

My husband has been a client for 18 years and I recently had my first appointment.

I can tell why he has been going there so long. The staff is very friendly and was extremely helpful in helping narrow down the many choices for new glasses. My Dr. took the time to explain and answer the many questions that I had... Love this Office and staff!

A Low Vision Optometrist's Tool Box

Genuine care and hands-on advice are our primary ingredients to ensuring complete low vision services. Talk to your low vision expert in Oswego about your concerns, and we will help optimize your surroundings to accommodate your visual needs better. As an example, improved lighting makes a significant difference for many eye conditions.

Low Vision Glasses

The advantage of glasses is that they allow you to be mobile and use your hands freely. Many patients have kept their driver's license and independence thanks to bioptic telescope glasses, E-Scoop glasses, or side-vision awareness glasses. Theater lovers can benefit from full-diameter telescope glasses to enjoy performances. Prismatic glasses are primarily used for reading.

These are only a few of the many low vision glasses available for low vision patients. Ronald Weingart, OD will help you to find the best solution for you.

Low Vision Aids and Devices

Magnification is key for optimizing vision. Closed-circuit television (CCTV), video magnifiers are available as hand-held devices or as a stand-mounted version. You can install special software to enhance contrast and colors on your computer screen. Other software can increase the font size to whatever is comfortable for you.

Advanced equipment utilizes virtual reality, image processing algorithms, or audio feedback to assist with almost any task you want to accomplish. Go for it!
