| Dr. Randolph Kinkade with Prototype Low Vision Glasses |
Dr. Randolph Kinkade is
designing glasses to help patients in Connecticut with vision loss
with macular degeneration regain some of their ability to read. People
with vision loss due to macular degeneration and other eye conditions
require optimal lighting conditions and magnification.
Dr. Randolph Kinkade, a
Connecticut optometrist and founder of Low Vision Consulting, believes that each
person with vision loss responds differently to light and magnification.
“Continued advances in
lighting and telescopic eye glasses show promise for treating vision
impairments, said Dr. Kinkade. “Too much or too little light and magnification is
a problem when it comes to reading.”
The type of lighting, its
intensity, color and aim are often the difference between being able to read
and not being able to read with telescopic glasses. New adjustable LED lights maximize patient’s
ability to read when combined with magnification.

With their flexible arms the LED lights focus best at about 12 inches and are attached to reading telescopes called tele-microscopes.
“It is all about the
physics, in particular electricity, radiation and optics, needed to create the
proper reading environment”, said Dr. Kinkade.
“My job is to help people see well enough to read. My patients know the frustrations of not
being able to read.”
Dr. Kinkade has tried many
types of illumination sources including incandescent, neodymium, halogen, and
fluorescent. For his glasses, LED’s
remain the most effective option due to their adaptability. As he says, “There
is always a better way.”
