People with Macular Degeneration, Stargardt Disease, Diabetic Retinopathy, Albinism and other conditions often tell me how difficult it is to see distant objects. They can't recognize friend's faces. They can't enjoy watching sports or live theater. They'd like to see their children or grandchildren better when they are playing sports. And of course, they have often had to give up driving. They are losing their independence.
Bioptic telescopic glasses can help many people with impaired vision see better so they can enjoy these things that are so important to them.
Watch this video. I will tell you all about bioptic glasses. How they work, how they help and I'll show you the various types of bioptics.
I hope this video is helpful to you.

I suffered homonymous hemianopia after stroke.where to get one in Malaysia?

@dr.davidarmstrong5881 8 месяцев назад

There is nothing that will correct homomymous hemianopsia. Some types of prism glasses allow people to be aware of objects in the blind field. I do not know how to access them in your country. I'd ask your eye doctor if I were you.

Hello Doctor David Armstrong, We are in California, do you have a referral you could share with us? Hammersley Clinic in Chile showcase a product very similar to the last product you shared in your great video. Would you please share the manufacturer's name or contact? There are no words that could describe the great work that you do and the love and dedication you have given to all Americans and beyond. Thank you Doctor Amstrong for educating us on to the low vision challenges.

Thanks for your kind words. I'm happy that you have found the video helpful. You will find several excellent low vision doctors at IALVS.com. The last bioptic telescopic glasses in the video are made by Ocutech, a manufacturer of bioptic glasses, located in Chapel Hill, NC.

Hello, Dr. David Armstrong, could you advise whether we should opt for telescopic glasses or prismatic lenses for a patient with macular degeneration who experiences a black spot in the center of their vision?

@dr.davidarmstrong5881 Месяц назад

The patient may benefit from both or neither. Prismatics and telescopic glasses are very different and are for different purposes. The patient needs a low vision evaluation by a doctor who has the skills and experience to determine the best way to help.

Hi Dr. Armstrong, It was nice watching your video on this wonderful option for low vision people. I have low vision and have been wearing the Beecher binocular at work for almost 20 years. Now with the developments in new technology, just wondering if there is something you know which is lighter weighted, more powerful and flexible (auto-focusing). For example, the telescope in this video, can it be used for the computer? Thanks in advance for your advice!

@dr.davidarmstrong5881 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching the video and for your question. Bioptic telescopic glasses are primarily for distance vision like driving, watching sports, recognizing peoples faces. They are not well suited for use at a computer. A different type of telescopic glasses with a larger field of view and positioned lower in the frame works much better at a computer. I am not familiar with the Beecher so I cannot compare weight or power. Auto focusing telescopic glasses do not have a large enough field of view to be practical for the computer.

So there is so much minus the decision made is to not grind it in to the lens due to distortion, and this is the cheapest way to fix WO spending money on a myodisc?, or are they relativeley close in price?

Interesting comment. Thanks for watching.

Sir can bioptic telescope perceibed for both distance nearr and distance or only distance

@dr.davidarmstrong5881 2 месяца назад

A very good question. Bioptic telescopes are mounted near the top of the regular lenses and are used for distance vision. Different types of telescopes can be prescribed to use for reading. They are mounted lower in the main lenses.

Yes, I have helped many people with those problems. It all depends on how much vision you have remaining. By doing a low vision evaluation a low vision optometrist will be able to show you how much help bioptic glasses will give you.

@dr.davidarmstrong5881 Год назад

It depends on how much vision you have remaining and how you need to use them. Those are questions that can be addressed by a visit to a low vision optometrist. By carefully evaluating your vision the doctor will be able to prescribe the bioptic telescopic glasses that will best suit your needs. Consult a doctor in your area for help.

Hi Doctor I am living in Pakistan I want to know how I can buy these bioptics glasses and from where, secondly how would I become to know which telescopic glasses will be perfect fit for me.

@dr.davidarmstrong5881 Год назад

Good questions. Thanks for watching the video. As you can see, there are quite a number of types and powers of bioptic telescopic glasses. The only way to know if they will help you and which is the best one for you is to have a low vision evaluation by an optometrist skilled in helping people with low vision. I don't know if this will help in Pakistan but you should try Googling "Low Vision". That may help you locate a doctor near you. I hope it does. Good luck.
