Seminars@Hadley Presents: Macular Degeneration and the Skill of Eccentric
Viewing

Date: Thursday, July 23, 2015

Time: 10:00 AM CDT, 15:00 GMT

Do you have macular degeneration? Are you having difficulty reading? When an
eye condition such as macular degeneration progresses to the point where the
“blind spot” or scotoma in your central vision makes reading as you used to
do – difficult, it may be time to learn about “Eccentric Viewing.”

Join Seminars@Hadley as Nancy Parkin-Bashizi, vision rehabilitation therapist
and orientation and mobility specialist, provides an overview of the
eccentric viewing technique. This webinar will explain the process for
locating one’s sweet spot of usable vision and discuss potential challenges
to this process. We will then explore how to learn to use the “sweet spot”
for reading, working on new strategies to make reading in this manner a
little more comfortable. Come join us and learn to see in a new way!

Doug Anzlovar, vice president of education & training, will moderate this
60-minute seminar. A question and answer session will be included as part of
the seminar.
