What else can I do to preserve the meager vision I have left? |
I am 24 and I have monocular vision. Lost most of my sight more than 10 years ago. I survived by feeling my way through. My functioning eye is very astigmatic. I am not using any low vision aid of any kind. I have multi-focal lenses as my eye is very astigmatic. However, it is very difficult for me to read at close range because the lense is sensitive to distance. I work with a computer with bare eye. The best I can do is magnify the screen by zooming it. I read very close to the monitor(my face only about 3-4 inches from the screen) Have you seen an eye doctor who specializes in low vision? If your eye doctor hasn't helped you much with this, you may want to ask for a referral to someone who deals more with low vision patients. (You can also call other local optometrists and ask them about what they do for low vision.) It sounds like you are struggling more than you have to because there are numerous gadgets and devices that can help you maximize your remaining vision. |
