February is Low Vision Awareness Month
This is an important time to raise awareness and share helpful information with patients and the community.
Many people don’t realize that when regular glasses or surgery are no longer effective, low vision care can still help. By sharing resources and educating others, you can help patients regain independence and improve their quality of life.
