When assisting the elderly, ECPs can do a lot to help enhance their visual experience and improve their quality of life by providing optical solutions to their subjective complaints. The process begins by understanding the milestones and trip stone these patients have endured overtime. And a little empathy goes a long way. This course examines the top eye disorders the aging eye experiences and what we can offer to ease their visual discomfort.
