A low vision optometrist is an eye doctor who helps people with significant vision loss make the most of their remaining vision. These patients often have eye conditions that can’t be fully corrected with regular eyeglasses, contact lenses, or surgery.
Our goal is for you to reclaim the ability to carry out tasks that are important to you. As President and Founder of the International Academy of Low Vision Specialists (IALVS) — a network of low vision optometrists — Dr. Richard Shuldiner intensively studied low vision care. We are committed to maximizing our patients’ vision and helping them live their best lives.
We help patients of all ages, including children, adults, and seniors, with various vision-limiting conditions. Some of the most common conditions that lead to low vision include:
- Macular Degeneration: Wet or Dry
- Juvenile Macular Degeneration: Stargardt’s disease, Best disease, etc.
- Diabetic Retinopathy: A complication of diabetes affecting eyesight
- Retinitis Pigmentosa: Leads to contraction of the visual field
- Glaucoma: Damage to the optical nerve due to inner eye pressure
Whether your vision loss developed recently or you’ve been managing it for years, we will meet you where you are—and focus on what you want to do next. /p>

A Personal Story That Reflects Our Philosophy
Several years ago, Dr. Shuldiner faced a significant medical decision of his own. After some encouragement from his wife and cardiologist, he agreed to undergo an angiogram, which revealed that surgery was needed. Instead of settling for a conventional approach, he began researching alternatives—and came across the Da Vinci robotic surgical system, an innovative technology that allows for minimally invasive heart surgery without opening the chest.
But Dr. Shuldiner didn’t stop there. He contacted the Da Vinci company directly and asked a simple question: “Who’s the best surgeon in the country using this technique?” That call led him to one of Philadelphia’s most experienced cardiothoracic surgeons. Thanks to that decision, his procedure was successful and his recovery swift.
Dr. Shuldiner often shares this story with patients—not to shift focus, but to emphasize something powerful:
When your health and independence are at stake, researching and seeking top-level care matters.
Just as he sought out the absolute best for his own health, he encourages patients to do the same when it comes to their vision.
And for thousands of people with low vision, that search has led them to his door.
Why This Story Shapes Our Philosophy
This experience reaffirmed Dr. Shuldiner’s belief in the power of proactive care, relentless curiosity, and personalized expertise. It’s the foundation of how we approach every patient—by asking the right questions, exploring every possibility, and refusing to accept limitations when solutions still exist.
At Low Vision Optometry of Southern California, we don’t just treat patients—we empower them to reclaim their lives. Call us today for a free phone consultation and find out if you are a candidate for low vision care that makes a difference.
