This peer discussion will consider case records covering patients with low vision and those with additional needs. We will present the background behind the cases and facilitate small group discussions with feedback into the larger group at the end. Possible solutions to support patients that have low vision in practice will be discussed, including reasonable adaptations and signposting to appropriate support agencies.
