Strategies to Continue Living the Life You Want
Low vision is a significant visual impairment that affects over 1.5 million Canadians, with over 5.9 million reporting living with an eye disease that could potentially cause sight loss. Low vision is considered poor vision that cannot be corrected with glasses, contact lenses, medication, or surgery.
Low vision is usually caused by untreated or underlying eye diseases, such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, or cataracts. Vision worse than 20/70 is considered low vision or severe vision impairment.
Tunnel vision or blind spots in the visual field can be considered low vision. In Canada, legal blindness is regarded as 20/200 vision or a visual field of 20 degrees or lower.
