Vision Specialist Services
Help your patients live their best lives.
As a vision specialist, you know the impact vision challenges can have on your patients. Conditions like macular degeneration, glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy can cause a decreased ability to do the everyday things your patients need and want in their lives. The ability to read and move around safely can be seriously impacted, causing a decrease in their quality of life. But there is help.
When you partner with the Central Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired, or CABVI, we can help you get your patients the rehabilitative services and adaptive tools and techniques they need to optimize their quality of life.
“I think it’s an obligation for all professionals to help patients beyond what they can do. And so one of my reasons for CABVI referrals is for help, for me as a professional and for my patients and their families.”
–Ophthalmologist Cynthia Parlatto
