Low vision is the term used to describe eye conditions that cannot be corrected with glasses, contacts or surgery. These conditions can develop at any age. People with low vision may not be completely blind, so it is important to help them maintain, or in some cases restore their vision. At Prasad Netralaya’s Low vision clinic we aim to help people adjust to and lead a normal life with their condition.

Low eyesight can be caused by a variety of factors. These are frequently the result of eye illnesses or injuries, or a disease that affects the entire body, such as diabetes. Other common diseases that puts you at risk of low vision conditions include:

• Age-related macular degeneration
• Diabetes
• Glaucoma
• Eye cancer
• Albinism
• Brain injury
• Inherited eye disorders like retinitis pigmentosa
