The Low Vision Collaborative Clinic (LVCC) is for students who are able to communicate and interpret eye charts (numbers, letters, or pictures) and communicate what they are seeing. The primary goal is to learn what tools could be utilized at home, in school, and the community to aid the student with visually accessing his/her world. Educational teams also have the opportunity to speak with the doctor and learn more about their condition and how it may affect the student on a day-to-day basis.
