Understanding Low Vision
February is recognized as Low Vision and Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness about permanent vision loss and the solutions available to those affected. Low vision is more than simply needing glasses or contact lenses—it is a visual impairment that cannot be fully corrected with standard eyewear, medication, or surgery. It can make everyday tasks such as reading, recognizing faces, using digital devices, watching television, or navigating safely much more difficult. Raising awareness about low vision helps people understand that specialized care, rehabilitation, and assistive devices can significantly improve independence and quality of life.
