Video: Costs and benefits of wearable low vision aids

There are so many low vision aids (LVAs) on the market, making it difficult to know which one is right for you. But what really works? And which devices offer the best improvements to quality of life for those living with macular disease? 

Dr Keziah Latham and PhD student Andrew Miller from Anglia Ruskin University, join us to discuss the latest findings from their groundbreaking research project which has been comparing different LVAs. Their project aims to provide clear, impartial evidence on device effectiveness as well as value for money.

This research could shape future support for those living with macular disease and provide the evidence needed for the NHS to consider offering these devices in low vision clinics.
