Can you?

  • Read normal print?
  • Do fine, detailed work (e.g. sewing)?
  • Recognise people or see expressions on their faces?
  • Watch television?
  • See markings on appliances (e.g. microwave)?
  • Cross streets and move around safely in unfamiliar places?
  • Cope with bright or dimmed lighting?

If you answered no on any of these questions, or if you have been told that nothing can be done to restore or improve your vision - you might have low vision. Read the file below to learn more about low vision.
