Our activities are provisionnaly located in a private practice with a
pluridisciplinay team, ophthalmologist, orthoptist, psychologist,
optometrist, ear-nose and throat. Students participate to the experimental
procedures. More than 50 % of the patients are treated with PDT when
applicable.
We work on a project to open a Low Vision Center in Lyon to enlarge our
capacities to take care of 300 patients per year.
We are closely connected to the :
Fédération des Aveugles et Handicapés Visuels de France
ARIBa (association représentative des initiatives en basse vision), a
clinical and research society devoted to low vision
Société Française d'Optique Physiologique
AFO, Association des orthoptistes de France.
We are teaching low vision in several universities in France and abroad.
