Low Vision Clinic

A low-vision Clinic located in the east wing of the administration 
building serves ASB students, students with visual impairments 
attending public schools and the Early Intervention Program babies.  
Activities of the clinic are coordinated by a staff member who 
schedules appointments and determines the appropriate steps to take 
based on the results of the examination.
  
An optometrist who is a specialist in the use of visual aids sees 
students at the clinic each Tuesday, does a thorough examination, 
monitors vision for stability and recommends visual aids when 
appropriate.  Depending on the doctor's recommendations, the clinic 
coordinator may order visual aids for students, advise parents on 
how to secure recommended aids, schedule training in the use of a 
visual aid or discuss the doctor's recommendations with the 
student's classroom teacher to insure that recommendations are 
implemented. 
 
For more information concerning the low-vision clinic or to schedule 
an appointment, you may contact Kelli Dixon at 501-683-5107
