Low Vision Clinics

Comprehensive Low Vision Clinics are designed to evaluate children who are already identified as blind or visually impaired. They are a collaborative approach including a teacher of the visually impaired, parents, a therapist and the CVRP team. The goal is to prescribe devices and technology that will allow the child to access the information being presented both inside and outside of the classroom, just as their sighted peers.
