Low Vision Aids

If you have visual impairment that cannot be corrected with conventional methods such as spectacles, contact lenses or surgery, there are still ways that we can help you make the most of the sight you do have.

We understand the day-to-day challenges caused by low vision, and our specialist optometrists are committed to helping you towards a solution that maximises your remaining vision. With an extensive range of aids on offer from leading manufacturers – including Ocutech, Eschenbach, Coil, Schweizer, Noir, Mediview – we can provide you with specialist spectacles, magnifiers, telescopes and electronic visual enhancing equipment to help improve your quality of life.

Enhance your vision with telescopic technology

We are proud to be a specialised centre for BiOptic Telescopes, which is an innovative spectacle-mounted telescope system. Enabling magnifications of up to 6x, these special glasses help patients see distances they never thought they would be able to again.

From bus numbers and train timetables to faces and televisions, the award-winning Ocutech VES- AutoFocus provides comfortable natural magnified vision at both long and short distances, and is the world’s only self-focusing bioptic telescope. With expertise and extensive training in low vision, our optometrists are specialists in assessing and fitting these bioptic systems.

By assessing your needs and determining the best device for your requirements, we can help you find a low vision aid that works for you and enhances your quality of life.
