  • Title: Low vision care--two case reports.
    Author: Crinigan RP.
    Journal: Am J Optom Physiol Opt; 1981 Dec; 58(12):1150-2. PubMed ID: 7325206.
    Abstract:
    Two patients are discussed and their similarities and differences are noted. Both lost an eye as a result of military service. One had low vision in the remaining eye because of a retinal problem with generally clear media. The other had an essentially normally functioning retina but light transmission was compromised because of a developing cataract. It was demonstrated that visually impaired or legally blind persons can be helped and they do not always need sophisticated devices to achieve useful vision. I described the devices prescribed and the advice given.
