What comes to mind when you hear the words “low vision”?

We asked Will from Billings, Montana, and his answer is a great reminder that low vision is often misunderstood.

At Low Vision Restoration, Dr. Chris Palmer takes a personalized approach to helping patients make the most of the vision they have. Through comprehensive low vision evaluations and specialty glasses, the goal is to help each person stay active, confident, and independent.

Vision loss may change how you see the world, but it doesn’t have to stop you from living your life.

We asked Brett from Dallas a simple question: "What is low vision?"

His answer is one we hear often, and it highlights how misunderstood low vision can be.

Low vision is a permanent vision impairment that cannot be fully corrected with glasses, contact lenses, medication, or surgery. It can make everyday tasks like reading, recognizing faces, driving, watching TV, or navigating unfamiliar places much more challenging.

At Low Vision Restoration, Dr. Chris Palmer works with people to maximize their remaining vision through personalized low vision evaluations and specialty glasses tailored to their individual needs, goals, and lifestyle.

Because vision loss doesn't have to mean losing your independence.

Can low vision be improved even when regular glasses or surgery can't help?

In this Minnesota & Co. interview, host Jessica Fix sits down with our very own Dr. Chris Palmer and patient-turned-patient-care-coordinator Ann to discuss how specialized low vision care is helping people regain independence.

Ann shares her journey of living with Stargardt disease, an inherited eye condition that causes central vision loss. After working with Dr. Palmer, she was able to accomplish tasks she once thought were no longer possible through updated, customized low vision glasses.

During the interview, Dr. Palmer explains how specialized devices, including bioptic telescopes and reading telescopes, can help people with vision loss maximize the vision they still have. These custom low vision glasses are designed for people whose sight cannot be improved with traditional glasses, contact lenses, medication, or surgery.

If you or someone you love is living with vision loss caused by:
• Macular Degeneration (AMD)
• Stargardt Disease
• Diabetic Retinopathy
• Glaucoma
• Retinitis Pigmentosa
• Optic Nerve Disease
• Or other eye conditions
..there may be options available to help improve daily activities like reading, recognizing faces, watching TV, and in some cases, even driving.

The Twin Cities has lost a true light. 🕊️

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Sr. Rosalind Gefre. To many, she was the legendary “nun with the healing hands” who brought comfort to the St. Paul Saints games. To us here at Low Vision Restoration, she was a dear friend and a source of incredible inspiration.

Sr. Rosalind lived with macular degeneration, but she never let it dim her spirit or her calling. It was an honor for Dr. Palmer to work with her to continue living a full, active life of service. She was more than just a patient—she was a staple at our fundraising events and the star of one of our commercials.

Beyond her healing hands, she had a gentle soul that touched everyone she met. We will miss her warmth, her humor, and her unwavering grace. Rest in peace, Sr. Rosalind; your story continues to inspire us every single day.
