I felt like Dr. Palmer took his time and gave me a thorough exam in regards to my macular degeneration. There are no magic bullets but I do see better with my new glasses with prisms. I enjoy reading and as long as I have adequate light and wear my new glasses, I can read large print books.

Signe R.
a retired teacher with AMD: “I use the bioptic glasses Dr. Palmer prescribed for me to watch my grandson play football in the Metrodome and to recognize people better at a distance. When you don't see well, you're willing to try different things.”

Fafa Y.
a recent Concordia College graduate from Africa: “I was born with Ocular Albinism and told I wouldn't be able to get a driver's license. When I heard about these telescopic glasses, I was curious, but skeptical. With Dr. Palmer's help, I am able to drive and able to enjoy the world from a distance instead of having to get up close to everything to see.”

Bev D.
