Help Brings Hope
Vision for Independence Center has been providing services as the only low vision center in Yakima and Kittitas counties for over 15 years. We serve people whose vision remains impaired despite prescription glasses and medical treatment. People of all ages, children through seniors, are welcome at VIC. We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization offering real solutions for people who are losing their independence due to impaired vision.
Low Vision Clinic
VIC offers a low vision clinic where an optometrist trained in low vision assists patients with finding devices, which enable them to make the most of their remaining vision. Such devices include magnifiers, lamps, glare shields and sunglasses.
Low Vision Store
VIC also has a low vision store where magnifiers, talking devices and devices with large buttons and displays can be purchased.
