How can a person with poor vision tell if the impairment is due to #LowVision?

The easiest way is to undergo a visual health assessment by visual health practitioners ; Optometrists(OD) & Ophthalmologists (MD).

We guarantee all round assessments directly or indirectly.

For years, he strutted around the Republic like a constitutional exemption, lecturing citizens on austerity while quietly feeding at an illegal trough. Now the High Court has done what common sense has been screaming: you cannot loot the Constitution and call it expertise.

KSh 2.44 billion later, the mask is off. What was marketed as “economic wisdom” turns out to be patronage in academic robes, secretive appointments, no competition, no constitutional anchoring, just vibes and proximity to power. Ndii was unlawful.

The tragedy isn’t that the court stopped the scam. The tragedy is that for years, Kenya was held hostage by people who confused access to the President with authority under the Constitution.

What if how you see isn't exactly how others see?

In a world characterised by myopia epidemic, lack of awareness may lead to conclusion that how you see is normal!

To answer this question #eyecheckup is the solution.

@revoptom Monocular diplopia could also arise due to impaired perfection of motility of the said eye with reference to the other eye.
