1. A low vision program should assist patients by assessing their living conditions, daily routines, and personal interests; providing practical suggestions to enhance safety and independence; advising them on availability of programs, and assisting in emotional and psychological rehabilitation of patients and families. 2. Within the ophthalmic profession, a bridge is needed between the importance of the psychosocial aspects of patient care and the importance of the medical and scientific research community in their quest for advanced technology and treatment. 3. It is important not to instill a false sense of hope that vision will be restored. Excellent prognostic signs for social adjustment and independence begin with a realistic acceptance of blindness.
