🌟 February is Low Vision Awareness Month 🌟
Low vision is more than just needing stronger glasses. It’s a visual impairment that cannot be fully corrected with glasses, contacts, medication, or surgery and can make everyday tasks like reading, driving, or recognizing faces more challenging.
Common causes include:
• 👁️ Macular Degeneration
• 👁️ Glaucoma
• 👁️ Diabetic Retinopathy
• 👁️ Cataracts
Even though low vision can’t always be reversed, there are options that can help patients maximize the vision they have — including specialty lenses, magnification devices, enhanced lighting, and adaptive technology.
At Bright Side Eye Care, we believe education is key. If you or a loved one are struggling with vision changes that glasses don’t seem to fix, don’t ignore it. Early detection and proper support can make a huge difference in maintaining independence and quality of life. 💛
