Hi,
My wife is disabled (Agoraphobia). She can leave the house and go maybe a 1/4 of a mile radius. Lucky that we live in a plan with a shopping plaza down the street. Unfortunately there are no Optometrists with in her "safe zone". So she has been wearing glasses with the same prescription for abt 10-15 years. I would take her glasses in and have the lens read when she needed new glasses. I know in the UK, home visits are popular in the medical field.
I cant seem to find anyone who will come to the home for an exam. Does anyone know of any organization etc..that might have Optometrists that do house calls? I'm pretty sure that in Optometry school the students carried around what looked like goggles with interchangable lenses or something along those lines..not sure what type of portable equip is available. Maybe thats the problem...I'm south of Pittsburgh, PA.
Any thoughts appreciated...
Thanks..
