Low vision devices for age-related macular degeneration: a systematic review.

Most studies indicated that low vision devices have positive impacts on reading and visual performance. But, even though they are reported to be a valuable asset to AMD populations, more rigorous research is required to draw conclusive evidence. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONLow vision devices can improve patient outcomes (e.g., vision, reading ability) for age-related macular degeneration populations.A multidisciplinary combination of low vision devices and rehabilitative services (i.e., eccentric viewing training, counselling, education) may enhance quality of life.
