Kory Cummings O.D.
Fort Worth Optometrist | Low Vision Specialist
Low Vision
In addition to a full-scope family practice, Dr. Cummings offers low vision examinations for the partially sighted. Low vision is when a patient’s vision is reduced and cannot be improved by traditional glasses or contact lenses.
Causes
The loss of vision may be caused by certain eye diseases such as macular degeneration and glaucoma, or diabetic changes and high blood pressure changes to the eye.
Your Exam
During a low vision exam, the quantity and quality of vision remaining will be evaluated. After this evaluation, certain devices such as magnifiers, high powered reading glasses, Closed Circuit Televisions, filters and other lifestyle enhancing products will be evaluated.
