Summary

This program provides comprehensive low vision rehabilitation services to children aged 3 to 21 with vision impairment. Participants are prescribed optical devices and trained to use them, with the goal of improving their visual functioning and ability to read. The program aims to help every eligible child in Tennessee access these services.
