The best thing to do is focus on prevention. Something’s you can do to help are:

• Wear your glasses when you need them and update your prescriptions.
• Wear sunglasses to reduce glare.
• Install good lighting inside and outside your home.
• Ask your optometrist for information about low vision rehabilitation exercises and services.
