Low Vision Services
The Low Vision program at the California School for the Blind offers support for educators and low vision students throughout California.
We provide:
- Free examination by UC Berkeley optometrists who specialize in low vision.
- Written report on a student's vision, including recommendations for electronic magnification needs.
- Optical devices for educational needs, such as magnifiers, monocular telescopes, and sunglasses.
- Consultation for educators and students.
- A low vision showroom of low vision devices, video magnifiers, and other technology to try before purchase. Make an appointment with or without a Low Vision Exam!
All services are provided at no cost.
