Abstract

We evaluated the efficacy of the optical and non-optical low vision aids on the basis of our 31 low vision patients, whose visual acuities were not corrected with the conventional glasses nor operations. Out results were following that the improved visual acuities by the low vision aids were stastically significant(p<0.01, paired t-test), and meet their needs. We think the optical and non-optical low vision aids are required to rehabilitate the visually impaired patients.
