Services
This program provides comprehensive low vision evaluation and rehabilitation services to visually impaired children from 3 – 21 years of age. Our goal is to enhance remaining vision for children with permanent vision loss and to provide access to the visual environment in the classroom, out of school and for activities of daily living. A trans-disciplinary team of professionals trained in ophthalmology, optometry, low vision, occupational therapy and education complete an individualized evaluation, rehabilitation plan, and follow-up consultation for each child. Vision enhancing optical devices, assistive technology, educational recommendations and support to local school systems are all part of this service. This program is offered in partnership with Clovernook Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired. Evaluations are available at two locations, Medical Office Building on the CCHMC campus and at Clovernook.
