Patient testimonials:
“Thank you, Dr. Armstrong, for my low vision glasses. After two weeks I have been able to do the following things that I could not do before: read the small print Holy Bible, read the stock reports and see the football players on the field with my telescopic glasses. Most of all I can read music. I am telling my friends about my new glasses.” Dr. Joseph C. Smiddy
“When I was first examined by Dr. Armstrong I had no idea if he could provide me with any device that could enhance my vision. If I had never tried I would have never known. I was pleasantly surprised and delighted at the improvement in my daily life the low vision glasses have made.” Diane Crow
“I can read and see TV better. I have used the glasses at meetings and was able to see the person leading the meeting better. I worked the polls for the election and was able to read all I needed to.” Laura Stanley
"Thank you very much for the glasses. What a difference they make. I love my new glasses. I can see the music and also the audience. I can stand back with the rest of the group and still read the music. Reading is much better and my husband says that I am reading out loud much faster than before." Clarisa Shepherd
"I am thrilled to death. I can see my student’s faces now. People on TV have faces. I can sit in the back of the church and see the priest's face. I can see the traffic lights better and see the colors. It takes me less time to correct my student's papers. I am able to use the computer without enlarging the font. Dr. Armstrong, you have washed the world. It is clean and bright." Professor Linda Schaff
