Often the ‘go to’ when we are diagnosed with an eye condition is magnifiers and low vision aids, but did you know it is important to be assessed for your magnifier to make sure it is the right one for you, your vision and the task that you are doing?

Low Vision Assessment provision is different in England and Wales.

In England there are different pathways to access your Low Vison Assessment provision depending on where you live. We would encourage asking your local vision impairment charity, GP, Optometrist or Eye Clinic Liaison Officer (ECLO).

In Wales, you can access the Low Vision Service via your local Optician however, not every practice offers this, so it is always better to check.
