(Formerly known as The Low Vision Information Center)
The Low Vision Center is a nonprofit organization that helps people with low
vision maintain their independence. Located in Bethesda, Maryland, we offer information
services as well as a home-like demonstration area full of a variety of low vision aids
and ideas.
The Low Vision Center offers its resources without charge, relying entirely
upon personal contributions to fund its varied services.
I invite you to browse our web site for more information about our services, as well as
helpful hints for improving your vision. Some examples include:
I also invite you to make an appointment to visit our demonstration area
so you can examine our low vision aids, including magnifiers,
CCTV's,
Zoom Text, and non-optical adaptive aids
(such as talking clocks and writing guides). We also sell a select group of
low vision aids and Bausch & Lomb, Coil, Eschenbach, and Schweitzer magnifiers. Please
don't hesitate to call us for additional information or to make an
appointment for a visit. Appointments are usually scheduled
after 10:30 a.m., Monday through Wednesday.

others who are similarly affected. If you would like to join a group,
