Vision Rehab Helps People With Low
Vision Navigate the World
Our Mission
To provide accessible, modern,
comprehensive, compassionate and
multidisciplinary care to those with vision
loss or blindness.
Help for Veterans with
vision loss
Many veterans of military service do not
realize that help for their vision loss
may be available through the Veterans
Administration. Vision loss may be
covered, and much help obtained, even
if vision loss is not service connected.
Low vision resulting from macular
degeneration, diabetic eye disease,
glaucoma, etc. may be covered by the
VA.

Message from our Doctors
Thank you for your interest in vision
rehabilitation and for visiting our web site.
Community Services for Vision Rehabilitation
(CSVR) helps all with any degree of vision
loss. We are highly accessible, responsive
and open to all. Our policies are designed to
make all of the resources, training, aids and
devices available to all who will benefit. We
offer individualized, personal care. We see
patients of any age, including children, with
any type or degree of vision loss, and with or
without medical insurance or other coverage.
A large inventory of strong glasses, adaptive
aids and equipment are stocked at our
offices. A thorough initial evaluation of each
person allows us to choose the aids best
suited for the type and severity of vision loss,
preventing the purchase of inappropriate and
often costly devices. All can be demonstrated
in the office, and many can be used on a trial
basis. Our Occupational Therapist and other
office personnel can provide additional
training and back-up.
We welcome any and all questions,
comments and feedback.
