Description: Making your life BIGGER, BRIGHTER & BOLDER 

Macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy and other eye conditions affect millions of people every year. But just because your vision isn’t as good as it used to be doesn’t mean you can’t live life to the fullest. With our free Low Vision Consultation we can help maximize your remaining vision and show you how to use high-powered magnification and other devices to help make your life BIGGER, BRIGHTER & BOLDER. 

On this day we will be visiting the Dick DeWess Senior Center in Lompoc. You may visit this location for a Low Vision Consultation but an appointment is needed. To make an appointment call Kitty Crockett at (805)462-1225
