Low Vision Support Group
David Graham, Leader
This is an education, support, and advocacy group for residents with low vision. Low vision is a visual impairment that affects an individual’s ability to perform everyday tasks such as reading, seeing faces, doing crafts, hobbies and other activities. It results frequently from eye conditions such as macular degeneration glaucoma and other eye conditions, illness, injuries, or, quite simply, the aging process.
At our meetings you can:
- Share practical tips for daily living
- Learn about magnifiers, lighting, technology, transportation and other resources
- Discuss the challenges and changes that come with vision loss
- Meet people who understand your experiences
- Find encouragement, information and connection
Everyone is welcome, including adults living with low vision, care partners, family members and friends.
