February is Low Vision Awareness Month
February is Low Vision Awareness Month, a time to highlight the importance of early detection and intervention for patients with vision impairment. Low vision describes vision impairment that can’t be fully corrected with standard eyewear or medical treatment.
Approximately 7 million Americans live with vision impairment. Early intervention can make a meaningful difference in helping patients maintain independence and quality of life.
