We Help Clients Prepare for and Manage their Vision Loss by creating individualized service plans that facilitate goal achievement. In partnership with our clients, our professional staff identifies the right combination of services, vision evaluations, assistive technology, education, resources and support needed for personal success.
We Educate our Community and Raise Public Awareness by conducting free vision screenings to preschool children that reinforce the need for regular professional eye examinations. We offer presentations that address symptoms and treatments for eye diseases, causes, implications and prevention of vision loss and teach best practices to support people with visual impairments.
Eligibility for Services Any resident of Bucks County whose vision is corrected to no better than 20/70 or has a visual field of less than 20 degrees is eligible for services from BCABVI. Specific programs may have additional eligibility requirements as identified by funding source. There is no charge for most of our services.
