Low Vision Aid Sales

All our professional and Optometric services are provided by John Davidson, & Sarah Townsend- fully qualified, and registered UK Optometrists.

Low Vision Aids

Low vision aids are mainly provided to patients with macula degeneration (ARMD), and allow patients to maintain some level of independence with daily visual tasks.

Visual aids are used to increase the illumination, magnification, contrast and visibility of visual tasks. We also provide electronic magnification aids for those with extremely poor sight, and those who live independently.

Many patients prefer to have these low vision aids prescribed in the community at our practice, rather than via the hospital, as it is easier for the patient’s carers to manage, and less traumatic & time consuming for the patient.

We provide advice & counselling to patients & their carers on specific visual disabilities.

We keep a large supply of LVAs in stock, and provide them on a "no risk” basis, (full payment required) where patients can return them for a full refund within 1 month of purchase if not suitable.

These devices are for use by those with poor sight, partial sight, visual impairment and blindness problems

We stock a wide range of various LVA devices from numerous suppliers
All devices are available on loan for a 1 month trial period (full payment required)
If you don't like the trial device prescribed, bring it back to us in perfect condition for a full refund
It is recommended that you receive guidance and professional advice before purchasing any low vision aids
