     Helping people overcome visual limitations is the goal of Western Kansas Low Vision Foundation.  Dr. Robert Hoch and Dr. Dawn Williams
are optometrists who specialize in low vision care, evaluate the degree of usable vision, and prescribe the most advanced optical devices available.  Prescriptions for glasses are also available through this examination. 
Tara Keesling is a low vision technician who works with individuals to help them adapt to these new devices.  You can also make an appointment with Tara for personal instruction on optical devices before your examination with the doctor.

Low vision appointments are made through Fry Eye Associates.  The examination with Dr. Hoch or Dr. Williams will take approximately one hour followed by approximately one hour with Tara working with magnifiers and other low vision aids.

Western Kansas Low Vision Support Group is open to any individual who has low vision.  The meetings are informative, often with guest speakers or with hands-on demonstrations of devices.  Many people feel better after coming to a low vision meeting, just from the knowledge that they are "not alone" in their low vision problems, and find much support and help from others in the group.

Meetings are on a Thursday every month, start at 3:00 PM and are held at the Finney County Senior Center, 907 North 10th Street, Garden City, KS 67846.  Click HERE for MAP.  These meetings are incorporated with the International Low Vision Support Group with live Audio Visual Internet Conferencing.  Please see the 2010 WKLV Meeting dates below or you may download and print this list in .pdf format here.
