Stargardt’s May Change Your Vision, but It Shouldn't Narrow Your World

A diagnosis of Stargardt’s Disease brings immediate uncertainty. Because this condition compromises the macula, milestones like driving, reading, or recognizing faces can suddenly feel out of reach. At {location get='name'], our eye doctor believes a change in sight should not mean a change in your ambitions.

We provide specialized low vision assistance tailored to the unique challenges of Stargardt’s. While your central vision may be blurred, your peripheral vision remains a powerful tool. We teach you how to leverage that remaining sight to achieve clear vision for the tasks that matter most, ensuring you can continue pursuing the life you want to live, on your terms.

Specialized Tools for Student and Professional Success

Navigating a classroom or a workspace with low vision requires adaptive technology. For many of our younger patients, bioptic telescopes are the solution. These miniature telescopes, mounted to the top of standard eyewear, allow you to glance upward for distance tasks—like reading a presentation screen—and look back down to take notes.

We also utilize high-contrast filters and digital magnifiers to manage light sensitivity and glare. By pairing the right optics with your specific needs, we help you stay competitive in your field. We don't just provide a device; we provide a strategy for a productive life.

Focus on the Vision That Remains

You’ve spent enough time being told what you can’t see. At Bissell Eye Care, we focus on the vision that remains and how to make it work for you. Our low vision evaluation differs from a standard exam because we prioritize your functional goals—whether that is seeing a lecture hall board or navigating a workplace computer screen.

By measuring your contrast sensitivity and identifying your best point of vision, we prescribe the exact tools necessary to maintain clear vision in your daily life. We treat the person, not just the pathology, ensuring our recommendations fit the physical and emotional demands of your lifestyle.
