  1. Reading the newspaper or other fine print, even while wearing glasses?
  2. Moving around your home or elsewhere (do you bump into things)?
  3. Traveling at night (seeing cars or locating curbs and stairways)?
  4. Identifying money or reading your bills?
  5. Maintaining your emotions (Are you feeling sad, depressed or anxious about vision loss?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you should probably make an appointment with the Center for Sight Enhancement.
