What Does "Low Vision" Mean?

Low vision refers to vision loss that can’t be corrected with standard glasses, contact lenses or surgery. However, it isn't considered blindness as limited eyesight remains. Symptoms typically include blind spots, poor night vision and blurred vision. Low vision is commonly caused by age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma and diabetes.

Fortunately, people with low vision can continue living full and meaningful lives with the help of low vision aids and devices.

My first experience with Mondo and I will never go elsewhere! Jessica is amazing and I left there lo... ving the glasses I picked. It’s difficult to shop for frames by yourself but Jessica’s honesty and suggestions left me feeling so confident in my choices!

I had never seen Dr. Mondo, but when the pandemic shut everything down (including my regular doctor)... and my vision suddenly went blurry...his office got me right in to be seen. His entire staff, Dr. Mondo included, was professional, friendly and went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. I'm definitely going back when it's time for my annual eye exam. Could not recommend enough!

5.0 star rating 3/29/2017 First to Review Very professional yet friendly office. After my eye exa... m, Dr. Mondo clearly explained my problems and the best approach to accommodate my lifestyle. For me, it was cataract surgery. Dr. Mondo referred me to an eye surgeon and the office staff set up my appointments. Everything turned out really well and I could not be more pleased! The knowledgeable staff, the wide selection of eye glasses and the acceptance of insurance made my appointments very pleasant. And now my husband is a Mondo Optical patient as well.

My husband went to mondo Optical as a child and it just so happens to be the only place that took ou... r insurance. They payed extra attention to my kids to make sure they had the right prescription, unlike all other places we have been.

My family has been going to Mondo Optical for about 5 years. I can't say enough good things about ... Dr. Mondo, everyone in the office and the optical shop. Appointments happen at the scheduled time- no waiting. The exams are thorough, & Dr. Mondo takes time to address all concerns. Checking out is easy. Billing is always right. They are happy to contact the insurance company for us. We get a variety of contacts & glasses through their shop. The orders are always right the first time. The glasses are beautifully made & are available when promised.
