Association for the Blind & Visually Impaired (ABVI) is dedicated to assisting individuals with visual impairments and blindness to continue living independently with their remaining vision. When traditional eye care professionals are unable to correct vision, ABVI steps in to provide low vision services, education, rehabilitation, and vision aids. Their team of expert low vision professionals is committed to helping every client thrive in a sighted world.

ABVI understands that vision loss can be a traumatic experience, especially for those with low vision. Everyday tasks like reading, shopping, cooking, and writing can become challenging. While doctors may not be able to restore vision, ABVI's low vision services can help individuals make the most of their remaining vision, allowing them to continue enjoying social connections, hobbies, and other interests.

It is important not to delay the use of these services. ABVI operates Low Vision Clinics in Grand Rapids, Holland, and Muskegon, where individuals can make appointments for personalized care. In 2020, ABVI became an independent subsidiary of Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital, leveraging over a century of experience in serving people with disabilities through specialized technology and therapeutic interventions.
