40th Low Vision Awareness Program

The 40th Low Vision Awareness Program, a joint initiative by LVPEI and India Vision Institute, was organized at the Institute's Hyderabad campus on 20-21 September 2019. Eighty five participants comprising low vision practitioners, rehabilitation professionals and trainees, optometrists and ophthalmologists attended this program. Through an interesting mix of didactic lectures, case studies and hands-on sessions, the program focused on integrating low vision rehabilitation services in the comprehensive primary level eye care. 'Patients' speak' and the success stories of clients who availed low vision rehabilitation services at LVPEI were motivational and inspirational for the participants. At the end of 2 days training program most of the participants were confident that they would be able to integrate the primary level low vision rehabilitation services into their practice.
