Low vision and back pain

A lot of people with a vision impairment, also experience back pain.

This is because people may need to come closer to a book or screen to be able to view it. Or they may need to look out the side of one eye, tilting with their neck. These regular movements can strain the upper and lower back.

Fortunately, VisAbility Physiotherapists are the experts in human movement - and common issues related to vision loss. Our physios can assess your individual environment and needs and provide strategies on how to manage your back pain in future.
