How do I choose the right vision aid?
Low vision optical devices, such as magnifying reading glasses, magnifiers, and small telescopes, are different from regular glasses and magnifiers.
Since low vision optical devices are task-specific, your doctor may prescribe different devices for different tasks. One device can be used for reading the newspaper, another for watching TV, another for spotting bus numbers or street signs, and still another for watching a football game or a play.
Some doctors recommend starting with one device to see how you manage, and adding additional devices as you become used to working with the device you have. It is extremely helpful to both you and your doctor if you can make a list of the tasks or activities that are most important to you and share that information with him or her.
