Interventions
Services are provided by optometrist(s) and low vision therapist(s), and include low vision therapy to improve use of remaining vision and low vision devices, and structured homework to practice use of low vision devices that are prescribed and dispensed.
Service is provided by the optometrist alone and includes demonstration of low vision device use and maintenance of prescribed low vision devices, without low vision therapy or homework and with less contact time.
