Purpose
The primary purpose of this research study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a new outpatient low vision rehabilitation program that is targeted to serve legally blind veterans with central vision loss. The hypothesis is that veterans in the treatment group will self-report less difficulty performing daily activities than veterans in the control group who are on a waiting list for VA low vision or blind rehabilitation programs.
