What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 23, 2026
A comprehensive professional reference text covering both the clinical diagnosis and functional impact of low vision — covering topics like visual assessment, lighting, optical devices, orientation and mobility, and how vision loss affects daily tasks across the lifespan. This is a textbook aimed at vision rehabilitation specialists, optometrists, orientation and mobility instructors, and students training in these fields. It's a made-to-order print or EPUB edition, not a consumer device — you're buying a training and reference resource, not something used directly by a person with low vision. The second edition is well-regarded in the field, but allow 3–4 weeks for a physical copy to ship.
