The field of low vision and neuro-optometric rehabilitation is very rewarding. There are constant struggles that an individual with these disorders faces as part of their ""normal"" life. Difficulties range from cooking and laundry to bill paying and shopping, and solutions to all of these concerns are readily available. Through rehabilitation and education we can make a significant improvement in the patient's confidence and independence. The low vision exam works in coordination with a patient's regular optometric exam.

During a low vision evaluation, we determine the individual goals and struggles the patient notices and then work on viable solutions. Once we have developed a plan, the patient returns to his or her general optometrist for all future care. Patients who have had traumatic brain injury or who suffer from a neuro-degenerative disease have specific concerns and needs regarding balance and visual perception. These needs are ongoing and ever changing, but a variety of solutions exist to aid in meeting patients' needs.

He then moved east where he completed training in comprehensive ophthalmology at the University of Minnesota. He was selected to complete a prestigious fellowship in cornea and external disease at the Cincinnati Eye Institute – a national referral center for complex ocular surface disease.

"I chose to pursue a career as a cornea and ocular surface transplant specialist as I was drawn to the precision and technical challenge of the field.

Ultimately, the greatest reward is seeing the significant improvement in the quality of life of patients who have had their visual function restored.” – Martin de la Presa, M.D.

Terria L. Winn, MD is a board certified ophthalmic surgeon specializing in cataract and implant surgery.

She was one of the first eye surgeons in Wichita to use topical anesthesia, starting in 1996. Her standard surgical technique utilizes eye drops to “numb” the eye and a no stitch, no needle approach, allowing the patient to leave the operating room without a patch and eliminating the need to stop “blood thinners.”

Dr. Winn was the first surgeon in Wichita, and one of the first in Kansas to implant the Acrysof foldable intraocular lens after receiving FDA approval in the mid 1990s. She was also the first in Wichita and the surrounding area to implant the Acyrysof Toric intraocular lens that corrects astigmatism.
