If you have low vision,you should see an eyecare professional to get a complete exam. The low vision specialist will give you some treatments for your low vision. The non-optical adaptive devices are usually used to deal with low vision. For example, large-print books, audio tapes, special light fixtures and others will be recommended by low vision specialist to people with low vision.
