What is a Low Vision Optometrist?

Our goal is for you to reclaim the ability to carry out tasks that are important to you. Such an activity could be driving a car, reading the paper, recognizing faces, watching TV, playing cards or board games, cooking, and anything that matters in your life.
As a member of the International Academy of Low Vision Specialists (IALVS) — a network of low vision optometrists — Dr. Greenvision intensively studied low vision care. We are committed to maximizing our patient’s vision and help them live their best lives.
