Special & Professional Needs
In some cases, even the best glasses are not good enough to read, work, study or watch TV. The reason may be disease-related or age-related. The first and most important step is to consult an eyecare professional to find the reason for the problem. After an eye examination, he or she can assess to what extent special low vision devices can be used to correct the problem.

Carl Zeiss makes a large range of special vision aids designed to enhance the eyesight and lifestyle of patients with severe visual impairments:
  • Hand magnifiers, pocket magnifiers or magnifying bifocals may be prescribed to enhance near vision
  • Glasses with magnifying optical systems may be used to improve distance and near vision
  • Telescopes may be used to recognize distant details like street signs, house numbers or bus routes
ZEISS magnifying optical systems are also the perfect solution for professionals in medicine and technology (physicians, surgeons, microelectronic technicians, etc.). ZEISS products allow you to perform your most critical visual tasks with the confidence of crystal clear, perfect vision.
