PV News – March 2011 – Precision Vision Announces New Low Vision Catalog – Precision Vision

IN THE NEWS

The statistics are concerning – over 20 million Americans have early or intermediate AMD; one in five will lose some vision; twice as any people were afraid of going blind as compared to those who were afraid of a premature death or heart disease according to a world wide study sponsored by Pfizer and the World Glaucoma Association.

Precision Vision is committed to helping those with Low Vision. We have received numerous requests to carry a Low Vision product line, and we’re happy to announce our new Low Vision catalog of top quality products, the result of many years of research and hard work. See below.

Precision Vision Announces New Low Vision Catalog

Dear Valued Customer,

Thank you very much for taking the time to review our new Low Vision catalog which we feel illustrates Precision Vision’s commitment to helping those with Low Vision.

Over the years Precision Vision has had many requests to carry a Low Vision product line, and while it has taken many years of research, we’re extremely happy with the result as this time that was taken was necessary to build a top quality product line that is second to none and exceeds both our customer and our own expectations.

Did you know – according to a world wide study sponsored by Pfizer and the World Glaucoma Association, twice as any people were afraid of going blind as compared to those who were afraid of a premature death or heart disease?

Many Low Vision patients are told by their primary eye care provider that “nothing can be done” for them and these words are incredibly damaging as many patients suffer from depression as a result of this news and give up hope that there may be a solution that works for them as they assume they will go blind. Many of these individuals lose their sense of independence as they are forced to rely on friends and family to help them with many personal and private daily tasks such as reading their mail and reconciling bank statements. While they may lose some sight in the central area of their vision; with the proper training, lighting, and magnification they can feel the return of some of their independence and this is what makes Low Vision aids and solutions so important.

As an Eye Care Professional are you and your staff prepared to offer your Low Vision patients customized solutions to fit their unique set of circumstances?

We hope this new catalog inspires you as you gain information about some of the tools that are out there to help your patients.

Precision Vision is committed to partnering with you to help you understand how these solutions work, can benefit your patient and add additional profitability to your practice.

If there is anything we can do to help you please be sure to contact us directly at (815) 223-2022 and let us know.

Sincerely,

Ed Kopidlansky, President, Precision Vision

PRODUCT PROFILE

ML Vidi The Wide Field telescope

ML Vidi is one of the most powerful telescopic devices on the market. It boasts a very large field of view, along with an array of customizations to make it suitable for any individual needs.

When it comes to magnification, the real magnification obtained on the retina is what matters. Because of its wide visual field, it is possible to come closer whilst still seeing the full object. Real retinal magnification is achieved by combining this approach magnification with the telescopic effect.

Spectacle Mounted Telescopes – Beecher Mirage 7X Monocular OD

Beecher Binoculars & Monoculars are telescopic eyeware that provide magnification and allow the patient to sit at a normal distance from the viewing surface. For patients with vision of 20/200 or more, the best results have been with the 7X Beecher Mirage.

ML Bino Test Sets

These devices help patients read using binocular vision at a short reading distance. A magnified image is placed on the retina, but as the addition is increased, so the reading distance is reduced, and the more the patient has to converge. This can be resolved by using “base-in” prism to assist the patient’s natural convergence. There are a number of factors that should be taken into account when deciding whether or not to use these devices, available online for your review. See the link below.
