The objective of this comprehensive course is to demystify the concept of low vision, impart skills in assessing low vision cases in the clinic and in dispensing low vision aids [LVA]. It begins by defining low vision, its etiology and epidemiology and the cardinal treatment principles, followed by exploring various types of optical & non-optical low vision aids [LVA] available in the global market. Finally the course is wound up by discussing how to assess low vision patients in the clinic and how to dispense LVA. At the end of the course, participants will become proficient in identifying, assessing and treating low vision cases in their day-to-day practice, thus, integrating low vision care into their clinical practice.
