Post Low vision aids

I have diabetic retinopathy and just had laser surgery today. I have been referred also to a doctor specializing in low vision services. Has anyone used any of these devices and have they helped? Thanks.

Low vision devices are very helpful for those who have suffered permanent vision reduction. The low vision specialist will determine what devices are best suited for you. He/she will take into account your visual demands, amount of vision reduction,individual needs, and individual expectations.
