Great video Dr. Long. This information is very interesting. It's wonderful to know that there is a way to help people who have lost vision to the side. I know these glasses will make them much safer and less likely to bump into things or trip over something that they did not see. Well done.
I have flied from Texas to Indiana for my father glasses and he need special glasses for hemianopsia.glasses is usesles, it cause double vision and they are unprofessional to even make correct measurements. I would never recommend anyone and don't let them scam you! First I saw video on youtube and called them and they told me they do it and it will be 1200$ for glasses and when i went there they told be it is 2600S.

They just scammed me and they think since i spent about 2k for my trip from Texas to India and i will pay for that amount too. If i like glasses I would do but glasses are not as promised. They don't say you it's disadvantages and they just try to sell you! If you have hemianopiasia, please never waste your money on this scammers!!! [ Add

My son has right homonymous hemianopia from a brain tumour. He has had this for approximately 9 years, he is now 18. After watching your video I can see how these glasses would help him significantly (maybe even the possibility of driving). One problem, we live in Australia. Do you deal with people in Australia or know of anyone here??
I'm sorry, but I can only prescribe special glasses by examining a patient and having the patient try a demo in office as well. The glasses featured in the video have certainly helped a lot of my patients, but some patients -- especially those who have adapted to their vision loss over a number of years like your son has -- do not see enough benefit and they are not prescribed in that case. As far as someone in Australia, unfortunately I don't know of anyone. I recommend searching for low vision providers on Google and/or contacting an optometry school or university. --Dr. Long
Hello Dr. Long. Because of an heart attack related brain damage, my father lost peripheral vision on his both eyes. We haven't measured it actually but approximately if you take nose as the normal line, he has 30 degrees on both sides making it up to 45 or 60 degress i think. Basically he can't see someone standing on his right or left. Does this help in this situation? And do you know anyone in the UK who can help us?
good day, can you recommwnd someone here in the Philippines tgat could help us with that glasses because my brother is suffering from limited peripheral vision on both eyes after his craniotomy, this changed his life drastically coz driving is essential to him. doctors here only prescribed us nerve regeneration meds that might help but will take lots of time.
Hello! I have been lacking peripheral vision on both of my eyes ever since I was 2 years old due to an accident. All my life, I never knew what having peripheral vision feels or looks like. I am having a lot of difficulties traversing around without bumping into something or into someone, and I always tend to be quite slow when I try to find something I'm looking for. If I may ask, will these glasses be able to help me?
Possibly, yes. You might also benefit from a telescope mounted in reverse on your glasses, or one held in your hand and used as needed to expand your field of vision. It is impossible to say without seeing you for an examination so that we can determine the type and amount of side vision loss, and demonstrate some of these options and more. You are welcome to see me or visit www.ialvs.com to see if there is someone in your area who might be able to help. Best of luck! --Dr. Long
Hello and good day Dr. Long, Are these glasses also available and successful for patients who've lost complete vision on one eye, followed by inferior or lower quadrant vision due to glaucoma? Thank you in advance.
Thank you for the question. So, yes, the glasses are available to "move" vision into non-seeing fields, but as far as being successful in a practical way, I would say the chances of that are very low. I have prescribed, but rarely, sectoral prisms, like the SVAG, mounted inferiorly to "bring the ground up." It can work as an early-detection-system of sorts for things that might cause a tripping or fall hazard, but it could also end up being more confusing than helpful. Best of luck and thank you again for the excellent question. --Dr. Long
Thank you for your interest. Please call to schedule. We need to evaluate to see if these glasses are right for you. If you are unable to travel here, Google search for someone in your area who does low vision care. -Dr. Long

@huseynovpervin Parvin, it was so nice to meet you and your father, but there is so much misinformation in this reply. Taken in order...they are not useless for some patients, but from the first demo, I told you his reaction was not good... you said "well maybe he just doesn't understand." You wanted them to work for him so badly, which is understandable and admirable. We told you double vision while gazing into the prism is normal, and expected, actually. We took accurate measurements, but your father didn't trust us and tried to take his own while saying, "I am a doctor." We would never scam anyone. Our business is based on referrals, and integrity is the order of the day. We would not quote a price that was less than our cost for special glasses. I would be interested to hear your phone records. We are empathetic and feel sorry that things didn't work out for your father. Holly has vision problems and does not work on commission. Any small amount of profit made after helping your father function better would have been worth the 3 or 4 hours we spent trying to help. We never promise ANYTHING will help our patients. That is why we do an evaluation and sometimes spend hours with a patient, as we did with your father. "Just try to sell you"... in spite of your persistence to receive the glasses at your reduced fee, Holly and I both agreed that I would not prescribe them to him. I really did enjoy your visit and wish we could have helped. -Dr. Long

Doctor, please clear a doubt.. I read in another comment that anyone who has already adapted to the homonymous left hemianopsia does not see enough benefits to use these glasses, could you explain please? I have this problem mentioned above and would like to see the lost side.
If you have adapted over a period of time, it's true, you may not see a benefit. In fact, it might just be confusing to try to adjust to having prism in the glasses. However, as a low vision doctor for over 25 years, I'm still regularly surprised by what works and what doesn't. So, the only way to know for sure is to be evaluated. --Dr. Long
Hello Doctor i am from India. I had a major retinal tear in my upper peripheral retina i had barrage laser to seal the tear but after that i had experience less visual fields downwards. My inferior visual field is restricted to my chin beyond that i had to bend my neck to see. This is causing me a lot of nuisance. I am not able to focus properly. There is effect in mobility. Being to these conditions i am facing depression and anxiety all the time. Please help me would these Svag glasses would help me to get my inferior field of vision to restore properly. How to order these glasses please suggest.
Thank you for your interest. The only way to see if they will help is to have a full low vision evaluation. Please visit www.ialvs.com to find a doctor. Regards, Dr. Long
Im in the Philippines and I had a head trauma at the back of my skull which damaged my optic nerve at my left side and can't see the right side field vision. I need to scan with my eye to see what's at my right side. I want to drive just a slow scooter motorcycle and need this eyeglasses. How can I avail Doctor? This really gave me hope. But I'm in the Philippines. Can you help me doctor?? 🥺🥺🥺
Thank you for your question. I can help you if you are able to see me at my office. Otherwise, Google search "low vision" in your area. You must be measured and try the special prismatic glasses before they would be prescribed. Regards, Dr. Long

I had prism glasses for my right eye. I had a stroke that caused a visual field loss. The stroke left me with dizziness also. Trying to learn the use of the glasses with the dizziness was too much. Glasses only now.
My daughter has right Homonymous Hemianopia following a brain tumor removal. The vision loss is happening on both eyes (right). Would she be able to benefit from your glasses ?
Thank you for asking and I hope she is doing well. YES, her condition is what the glasses are meant to aid. An evaluation is needed to be sure that they would be useful for her before purchasing and ordering. Our contact information is included in the description of the video. Please feel free to contact our office should you like to schedule or if you have any more questions. --Dr. Long
Thank you so much doctor. My daughter is 12 and her life has changed drastically following her surgery and vision loss. We are in San Diego and I will contact Holly to schedule a time to come in.
Hello, our son has right side visual field loss due to a hemispherectomy surgery. He currently has prism glasses, but they don’t have the side lense seen here, we were told that the prism is “built in” (his lenses look like normal flat lenses). Could you tell me, if what he has is the same as what you offer? He’s 5 so it’s hard to know if the glasses are helping him or not since he doesn’t give the best info about what he can see/not see.
@@sittingonacorlflakePossibly, yes. It's a tool for expanding his vision. But again, he may adapt so well that any aids or special glasses may just be a hindrance.

does your glasses work too, for people that had a peripheral vision loss because of a brain injury I've been waiting for some technology to pop up for 13 years now because i couldn't get my drivers license because i was too scared to drive because of my peripheral vision loss but if not then thanks anyways.
Yes, they can help in some cases. However, every area has different laws and patients see different amounts of improvement and aid with special glasses. --Dr. Long

Hello, I live in Texas but my father lives in Europe and he has right hemianopsia. I would like to get one of this glasses for him. Could you please assist me on this?
I would love to see him to see if it might help -- he needs to be evaluated to see if they help and then he would need trained at the dispensing visit. If you cannot come to my office, do a search for low vision care in your area and see what you can find. Unfortunately, I don't know of anyone in Europe who fits these special lenses. Thank you.
Hi Dr Long, A friend had a eye stoke and lost a lot of vision on his left eye. He only got 1/10 on that eye and only from the top part he can see. Can Awarerness glasses be used in this case? Thank you for your help.
Thank you for asking. The short answer is...maybe. The real answer can only be known by me seeing your friend for an examination. If he is able to come, I would speak with him over the phone first to be sure that I thought we had a reasonable chance for success.

Yes, but it depends on the particular laws in each State. Unless expressly stated to be prohibited, many times I refer patients with hemianopias to a Certified Driving Rehab Specialist who can evaluate an individual's ability and fitness to safely drive. -- Dr. Long

Aziz, I believe I have emailed with a relative or acquaintance of yours about this already. Special glasses can sometimes help with RP. But they cannot be prescribed without seeing a patient for an evaluation.
@@drwjlong Sir, I live really far away and can't take the risk of going all the way to the United States without being sure that these glasses will work on me. It will cost me a fortune to come all the way from where I live to your clinic. If there is a chance my sight can get better using your glasses, then I'll gladly start applying for a Visa for medical purposes and make an appointment with you!
@@azizjabrane6323 I'm sorry but there is no way to be sure they will help you without an evaluation. Also, your sight will not improve. They are a prescribed "tool" to potentially allow you to make better use of the remaining vision that you have.

Super helpful and informational!
My son has right homonymous hemianopia from a brain tumour. He has had this for approximately 9 years, he is now 18. After watching your video I can see how these glasses would help him significantly (maybe even the possibility of driving). One problem, we live in Australia. Do you deal with people in Australia or know of anyone here??
I'm sorry, but I can only prescribe special glasses by examining a patient and having the patient try a demo in office as well. The glasses featured in the video have certainly helped a lot of my patients, but some patients -- especially those who have adapted to their vision loss over a number of years like your son has -- do not see enough benefit and they are not prescribed in that case. As far as someone in Australia, unfortunately I don't know of anyone. I recommend searching for low vision providers on Google and/or contacting an optometry school or university. --Dr. Long
Hello Dr. Long. Because of an heart attack related brain damage, my father lost peripheral vision on his both eyes. We haven't measured it actually but approximately if you take nose as the normal line, he has 30 degrees on both sides making it up to 45 or 60 degress i think. Basically he can't see someone standing on his right or left. Does this help in this situation? And do you know anyone in the UK who can help us?
I'm so sorry to hear this. It might be possible to help with prisms. I'm sorry, I do not know of anyone in the UK. - Regards, Dr. Long
good day, can you recommwnd someone here in the Philippines tgat could help us with that glasses because my brother is suffering from limited peripheral vision on both eyes after his craniotomy, this changed his life drastically coz driving is essential to him. doctors here only prescribed us nerve regeneration meds that might help but will take lots of time.
I'm sorry, no. I don't know of anyone. --Dr. Long
Hello! I have been lacking peripheral vision on both of my eyes ever since I was 2 years old due to an accident. All my life, I never knew what having peripheral vision feels or looks like. I am having a lot of difficulties traversing around without bumping into something or into someone, and I always tend to be quite slow when I try to find something I'm looking for. If I may ask, will these glasses be able to help me?
Possibly, yes. You might also benefit from a telescope mounted in reverse on your glasses, or one held in your hand and used as needed to expand your field of vision. It is impossible to say without seeing you for an examination so that we can determine the type and amount of side vision loss, and demonstrate some of these options and more. You are welcome to see me or visit www.ialvs.com to see if there is someone in your area who might be able to help. Best of luck! --Dr. Long
Hello and good day Dr. Long,
Are these glasses also available and successful for patients who've lost complete vision on one eye, followed by inferior or lower quadrant vision due to glaucoma? Thank you in advance.
Thank you for the question. So, yes, the glasses are available to "move" vision into non-seeing fields, but as far as being successful in a practical way, I would say the chances of that are very low. I have prescribed, but rarely, sectoral prisms, like the SVAG, mounted inferiorly to "bring the ground up." It can work as an early-detection-system of sorts for things that might cause a tripping or fall hazard, but it could also end up being more confusing than helpful. Best of luck and thank you again for the excellent question. --Dr. Long

I have flied from Texas to Indiana for my father glasses and he need special glasses for hemianopsia.glasses is usesles, it cause double vision and they are unprofessional to even make correct measurements. I would never recommend anyone and don't let them scam you!
First I saw video on youtube and called them and they told me they do it and it will be 1200$ for glasses and when i went there they told be it is 2600S. I had fact to show our phone conversation since my phone records calls but they just say sorry it is what it is you must pay that amount. They don't rally feel sorry and customer satisfaction sucks. They just scammed me and they think since i spent about 2k for my trip from Texas to India and i will pay for that amount too. If i like glasses I would do but glasses are not as promised.
They don't say you it's disadvantages and they just try to sell you! If you have hemianopiasia, please never waste your money on this scammers!!!
@huseynovpervin Parvin, it was so nice to meet you and your father, but there is so much misinformation in this reply. Taken in order...they are not useless for some patients, but from the first demo, I told you his reaction was not good... you said "well maybe he just doesn't understand." You wanted them to work for him so badly, which is understandable and admirable. We told you double vision while gazing into the prism is normal, and expected, actually. We took accurate measurements, but your father didn't trust us and tried to take his own while saying, "I am a doctor." We would never scam anyone. Our business is based on referrals, and integrity is the order of the day. We would not quote a price that was less than our cost for special glasses. I would be interested to hear your phone records. We are empathetic and feel sorry that things didn't work out for your father. Holly has vision problems and does not work on commission. Any small amount of profit made after helping your father function better would have been worth the 3 or 4 hours we spent trying to help. We never promise ANYTHING will help our patients. That is why we do an evaluation and sometimes spend hours with a patient, as we did with your father. "Just try to sell you"... in spite of your persistence to receive the glasses at your reduced fee, Holly and I both agreed that I would not prescribe them to him. I really did enjoy your visit and wish we could have helped. -Dr. Long

Doctor, please clear a doubt.. I read in another comment that anyone who has already adapted to the homonymous left hemianopsia does not see enough benefits to use these glasses, could you explain please? I have this problem mentioned above and would like to see the lost side.
If you have adapted over a period of time, it's true, you may not see a benefit. In fact, it might just be confusing to try to adjust to having prism in the glasses. However, as a low vision doctor for over 25 years, I'm still regularly surprised by what works and what doesn't. So, the only way to know for sure is to be evaluated. --Dr. Long
Hello Doctor i am from India. I had a major retinal tear in my upper peripheral retina i had barrage laser to seal the tear but after that i had experience less visual fields downwards. My inferior visual field is restricted to my chin beyond that i had to bend my neck to see. This is causing me a lot of nuisance. I am not able to focus properly. There is effect in mobility. Being to these conditions i am facing depression and anxiety all the time. Please help me would these Svag glasses would help me to get my inferior field of vision to restore properly. How to order these glasses please suggest.
Thank you for your interest. The only way to see if they will help is to have a full low vision evaluation. Please visit www.ialvs.com to find a doctor. Regards, Dr. Long

I had prism glasses for my right eye. I had a stroke that caused a visual field loss. The stroke left me with dizziness also. Trying to learn the use of the glasses with the dizziness was too much. Glasses only now.
My daughter has right Homonymous Hemianopia following a brain tumor removal. The vision loss is happening on both eyes (right). Would she be able to benefit from your glasses ?
Thank you for asking and I hope she is doing well. YES, her condition is what the glasses are meant to aid. An evaluation is needed to be sure that they would be useful for her before purchasing and ordering. Our contact information is included in the description of the video. Please feel free to contact our office should you like to schedule or if you have any more questions. --Dr. Long
Thank you so much doctor. My daughter is 12 and her life has changed drastically following her surgery and vision loss. We are in San Diego and I will contact Holly to schedule a time to come in.
Hello, our son has right side visual field loss due to a hemispherectomy surgery. He currently has prism glasses, but they don’t have the side lense seen here, we were told that the prism is “built in” (his lenses look like normal flat lenses). Could you tell me, if what he has is the same as what you offer? He’s 5 so it’s hard to know if the glasses are helping him or not since he doesn’t give the best info about what he can see/not see.
What I am describing is different. They may not work for him at his age. But, he'll adapt better than most. - Dr. Long
Do you think what you’re describing could be beneficial for him in the future?
@@sittingonacorlflakePossibly, yes. It's a tool for expanding his vision. But again, he may adapt so well that any aids or special glasses may just be a hindrance.
