Frequently Asked Questions
The best doctors for low vision treatment in Kolkata explain that having a low vision means an inability to see distant or near objects clearly due to refractive errors or other disease conditions, even with the use of prescription eyeglasses or lenses.
Low vision is being unable to see distant objects or near objects even with prescription eyeglasses or lenses, whereas blindness is the complete inability to see or perceive light or see any objects near or far.
Doctors for low vision treatment may prescribe high magnification lenses or prism lenses for the management of low vision, or advise medications or surgical procedures if the low vision is due to an underlying cause such as glaucoma, etc.
Low vision is diagnosed with the help of tests such as 

  • Visual acuity testing
  • Visual field testing
  • Slit lamp examination 
  • VEP
  • Electroretinogram etc.

Doctors for low vision treatment say that, while low vision is not completely curable, prescription eyewear, medications, or in some cases surgical procedures may help to partially improve vision.
