Help for Barry

Barry Hess was referred to me by his ophthalmologist. He came requesting help with vision loss caused by several longstanding problems. Mr. Hess was born with a very high amount of astigmatism in both eyes. He is a diabetic. His left eye has very limited vision and the better right eye corrects to about 20/80 with a high astigmatic eyeglass correction. Barry requested that I help him with his distance vision so he can continue driving and with his vision for reading. He wants to continue to do geneology research. With 2.2x bioptic telescopic glasses containing his astigmatism correction Barry meets the requirements for a Virginia limited drivers permit. He will be able to drive during daylight hours while wearing the telescopic glasses. In the picture you can see him reading with the Clear Image microscopic glasses that I prescribed. They magnify 2 times and contain his prescription for astigmatism. Barry can read very small print with them. Barry Hess is fortunate to be the patient of a doctor who recognized that he would benefit from low vision glasses. The referral to me for a low vision evaluation gave Barry the help he needed to continue with activities that he enjoyed but which had become very difficult for him. If you have some eye condition that is limiting your enjoyment of life ask your eye doctor if a low vision evaluation would be helpful. You may come to me by your doctor's referral or by calling me direct. Call me toll free at 1 866 321-2020. I'd love to be able to help you.
