Low Vision Montana's information & referral service (800-601-5004) can assist individuals (or their families) in accessing organizations, agencies and community resources that can help low vision or blind individuals live more independently in their communities. |
Low Vision Montana's mobile unit (currently under development) will eventually house a variety of low vision aides that can be examined and evaluated by consumers for potential usefulness. The mobile unit will also be utilized by eye care professionals to provide exams as the unit travels around the state. Please note: LVM will not represent, sell or recommend specific product lines. |
Low Vision Montana can assist individuals to find peer support -- individually or in group settings. |
