About the Treatment Method
Rehabilitation Process and Devices
The goal of rehabilitation is not to heal (treat) damaged nerves or cells. It is to enable the person to achieve the independence of taking care of their own needs by activating the patient's undestroyed healthy retinal tissues with the help of optical magnifying systems.
Mini telescopic systems that can be mounted on glasses to increase distance vision, illuminated electronic magnifiers for close reading, and prismatic special lenses are specially prescribed by experts according to the patient's needs (reading, sewing, walking outside).
No. Although it is mostly used in the older age group due to macular degeneration disease, this rehabilitation is successfully applied to children and young people with congenital retinal anomalies or genetic diseases so that they can continue their school lives.
