Low Vision Care in Africa

Low Vision Care in Africa: Practical Approaches to Clinical Services, Educational Engagement and Planning

This manual has been developed with the providers and planners in mind; it is an attempt to provide those individuals at hospitals, training schools, and other settings with the knowledge and understanding of implementing low vision within an overall VISION 2020 programme. While the focus is primarily on children, this manual can also assist programmes to manage the low vision needs of adults. In this manual we are not trying to create an advocacy tool but some of the messages in the planning session can be adapted for this purpose.
