SENIOR VISION SERVICES

Our Senior Vision Services program is the newest one at A.V.R.E. and is designed especially for people who are 55 and older who have a severe vision loss.  We have assisted older people for a long time as part of our general Core Services, but with a program specifically dedicated to older people, we can now also help those with low vision who are not legally blind.

Presently, 65-70 percent of people over the age of 65 have vision related disabilities.  This program provides vision rehabilitation services for older people whose vision has decreased to the point where normal living tasks become difficult. Most services are aimed at assisting the individual remain independent in his or her home environment. Seniors who would like to stay working or return to work are encouraged to check out the Employment Services button and contact us.

All seniors are offered all of our Core Vision Services.

We also offer Peer Support Group meetings and seminars in conjunction with county Offices for the Aging and other senior service providers.
