About
Vision rehabilitation/low vision services: The Sight Center provided low vision clinical and functional rehabilitation services to over 600 individuals in 2018. These services maximize use of residual vision for people who no longer benefit from glasses, contacts, surgery or medication. In addition to the individualized training; clients are instructed to utilize magnifiers, CCTV's, monocular telescopes, lighting, filters and home modification techniques to regain or maintain their independence. Assistive devices can be loaned prior to purchase to ensure the device is a good fit for the client's goals and abilities. Services are provided both in the agency low vision clinic, the home, the workplace or the school setting.
