Low Vision Telescope Glasses: The Safer Alternative to Telescope Implants

Low Vision Telescope Glasses
• Conditions like macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, or glaucoma can cause severe eyesight impairment which cannot be improved with regular eyeglasses.

• Low vision telescope glasses are a safe and effective way to see better.

• They work wonderfully for most people with poor eyesight, regardless of age, or history of cataract surgery.

• With decades of tens of thousands of visually satisfied patients, low vision telescope glasses are the recommended choice for improving poor eyesight.

Low Vision Telescope Implants
• Low vision telescope implants aren't the same as low vision telescope glasses. They require invasive eye surgery, are restricted to those who are age 75 or older, and cannot even be considered if a patient has had cataract surgery.

• Unfortunately, telescope implants are illogically implanted in the eye which has the worse vision, which results in much worse eyesight than if the implant had been inserted into the better eye.

• It is inserted into the worst eye because there's fear that if it's inserted into the better eye, there is the possibility there will be additional damage to the better eye, resulting in even more devastating visual impairment.

• With decades of tens of thousands of visually satisfied patients, low vision telescope glasses are the recommended choice for improving poor eyesight.

Low Vision Telescope Glasses are the treatment of choice
In summary, low vision telescope glasses are the only proven safe method for non-surgical vision improvement with a long track record of success.

Typical comments from our patients

"I could not see street signs too clearly. After telescopic lenses were prescribed I could see the signs further down the road. Special reading glasses help me read books, newspapers, and to see my wrist watch. Now I know there is always hope."

"The glasses for TV are terrific. And the reading attachment makes the words in my newspaper easier to see. I also see signs better when I am driving. The special glasses do just what they're supposed to do."

"Now I see much better. I highly recommend those special glasses to anyone with vision problems."

"For approximately sixteen years I went to numerous retina specialists who offered no hope. At one point I was told I couldn't drive anymore. While I was taking my daughter for a visual exam with Dr. Rummel, I happened to mention that I had low vision. I explained the difficulties that I have and live with every day. I was used to seeing things a certain way and therefore, what was abnormal to other became normal to me. Dr. Rummel then told me that he could help me to see much better. When testing different lenses, he placed me in everyday situations, and much to my surprise, I was able to see clearly.
 
"I am looking forward to being able to see other drivers when I am driving my car and not having to worry if it is my turn to proceed at a stop sign. I am also looking forward to reading with my daughter without having to struggle to read the words and remember what I just read. I will feel safer crossing the street and being able to see my daughter while she is playing in the school yard."

"I was told nothing more could be done, but I wasn’t willing to accept that. I thought that surely, there must be something more I can do. Dr. Rummel designed special low vision glasses for me that increased my side vision, thus reducing my dependence on my seeing-eye dog."

"I believe that in life any improvement is good, however these special glasses are a significant improvement in many ways. I can see someone's face and expressions when talking to them; it makes me feel more comfortable. I can see things in my garden and even television looks better."
