A Vision Above

Senior Care Path Summary

A Vision Above specializes in diagnosing low vision function and connecting patients with technology and assistive devices to maximize remaining sight. The team of certified optometrists and low vision specialists (registered opticians and representatives) conducts comprehensive assessments using magnifiers, lighting, and specialized eye charts to test visual acuity, depth perception, and visual field. They provide access to the provincial Assistive Device Program for Ontario residents, helping older adults with legal blindness or vision loss maintain independence and quality of life.

The service works closely with ophthalmologists, optometrists, and other healthcare providers through a formal referral process. A Vision Above offers in-office assessments and consultations, with a dedicated team available during extended business hours (Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm). They also publish evidence-based blog articles and educational resources on living independently with low vision and choosing appropriate assistive devices for aging in place.
