What Are Low Vision Aids?
Low Vision Aids are devices designed to help people with poor vision to read and see more clearly. Examples include Electric Video Magnifiers, standing and hand-held magnifiers, strong magnifying reading glasses, loupes, and small telescopes. These devices provide greatly increased magnification capabilities along with higher-quality optics (i.e. the way the lens bends or refracts light). Often prescribed by an eye doctor, these devices are different from your normal eyesight glasses and magnifiers.
