We Are Committed to Low Vision Patients Having a Happy and Fulfilling Life With Their Loved Ones
Eyesight is a blessing that allows us to lead a peaceful and serene life doing the things we love and creating memories that last a lifetime. Low vision diseases can deprive people of that blessing and make life challenging. Dr. Kornfeld Low Vision Optometry of Western New York is a trusted optometry practice established by an accomplished optometrist with more than 50 years of experience helping those impacted by low vision lead a happy and independent life, so they can continue creating memories with their loved ones.
Effective Non-Invasive Alternatives to Surgery
While surgery is the most popular option if you have acquired an eye condition such as cataracts, we provide safe, non-invasive alternatives to help you lead a regular life when surgery is not an option, so you do not have to worry about the after-effects of a procedure.
