Low Vision Services at the Lighthouse, including our on-site Clinic and Store, and the Independent Living Program, is a life enhancing resource for our community and our employees. Now in our third full year, the program continues to meet the growing needs of the community, seeing more patients and community members, and putting in more service hours than ever before. As one of the only secondary care clinics in the area, we provide access to eye exams, ongoing care, and specialized tools that people with low vision need to continue to work, live, and thrive independently. The Independent Living Program provides services in each client’s home so they can remain as independent as possible.
