  24. What is Low Vision?

    Low vision cannot be fully corrected with glasses, contact lenses, medication, or surgery.

    Low vision can include blurry vision, blind spots, tunnel vision, or difficulty seeing at night.

    Not all vision loss is visible & everyone’s experience is different.

    Awareness & education help build understanding, access & inclusion.

    Low vision does not mean low ability.
