Preserving Your Vision
Your vision is precious, and we know that dealing with low vision and vision rehab can be challenging. Along with helping you understand low vision, we provide vision rehabilitation services to help you regain independence and improve your quality of life.
Vision rehab is the standard care if you’re dealing with vision loss. It involves a variety of techniques to help you perform daily activities with your remaining vision level.
We incorporate our contact lens technology like EyePrintPRO, Ovitz, and ortho-k to support your eyesight and help you maintain optimal vision. Low vision can change your daily life forever, but our goal is to help you manage it. Contact us to schedule an appointment to see if vision rehab can help you.
Understanding Low Vision
Low vision is limited vision that can’t be corrected with glasses, contact lenses, medications, or surgery. It can make it difficult to do everyday activities and impact your quality of life.
You might have low vision if you struggle with things like:

- Telling colors apart
- Seeing your computer or television screen clearly
At Carolina Eye Doctors, we offer personalized vision rehabilitation services to help work you through low vision issues and instill the skills you need to live safely and independently.

Our Google Reviews
This is the one Dr. Appointment I do not dread going to. Everyone at Caroline Eye Doctors are so friendly and attentive. They even take the time out to share knowledge and offer suggestions that suit your best needs.

I left this office in complete disbelief at the kindness that was shown to me and my son. My two year old was definitely difficult to examine. But Olivia, and Dr. Overberg were two of the kindest people I have ever met! Thank you so much for taking such good care of my son! Dr. Overberg was relentless to get my son’s examination, and the correct prescription for his glasses perfectly. I cannot even imagine how difficult that is with a squirming two year old! We will be forever grateful!

I am so appreciative of the care I receive from Carolina Eye Doctors. The staff is efficient and kind and Dr. Garcia is 100% the best! In all my years, this is hands down the best care I’ve ever had!

On my latest visit, I saw Dr. Overberg for an eye exam. I had previously seen Dr. Garcia, but our schedules didn’t align with this go-around, so I decided to see Dr. Overberg. She was fantastic! She was so thorough and professional. You really can’t miss this office…everyone from the doctors to the front desk is phenomenal! Great service, professional exam, detailed follow through, and a wonderful choice of glasses! I’m a big fan!
