Providing Personalized Care & Services Since 2006
Our owner and optometrist, Dr. W. Jarrod Long, has provided low vision services in Bloomington, Indiana since 1997. Dr. Long formed Midwest Low Vision in 2006 to reach more patients and extend his scope of practice. In addition to the main office in Bloomington, Dr. Long provides low vision care at satellite offices in Evansville and Clarksville, Indiana. Using special charts and techniques, Dr. Long will determine how much of your vision remains. From there, he prescribes you special glasses designed to help you overcome the limitations caused by Macular Degeneration and other eye conditions. In addition, he can make recommendations for non-optical visual, tactile, and auditory aids.

“My association with the low vision department at Long Family Eye Care has always been a positive and helpful experience. My most recent visits introduced me to visual aids and glasses that have enabled me to function at the highest level possible with my visual impairment. The time Dr. Jarrod Long and Casey spent with me was informative, kind and life changing. Without question, the most current information and low vision assistance available.”
Dr. Long’s low vision patient, Mrs. Hunsucker, suffering from the effects of Macular Degeneration, simply wanted to see the TV better and read newsprint. As Dr. Long says, “While it’s not always the case, one pair of glasses was able to serve both purposes.” And as Ermal says, “I now order every newspaper I can find!”
Margaret Pillar, 85 years old, came to see IALVS doctor, W. Jarrod Long, O.D. from 3 hours away with goals of reading and seeing her TV more easily — the drugstore magnifiers she had were no longer helping. After spending an hour with Dr. Long she was able to see how the special glasses would help for TV before even ordering them.
“Unbelievable to be able to see again, this will be great!”
“Oh my, they are so clear. Wow. I love them.”
“These E-scoop lenses are wonderful! I have not seen this clear in years!!!”
Al Albertson saw Dr. Long at the main office in Bloomington. At the conclusion of the evaluation, it was clear that Mr. Albertson saw the most benefit for his vision with the E-scoop glasses. A few weeks after the dispensing of his glasses he says, “It is a nice improvement looking at a distance and driving down the highway. And, I get around really good wearing them and I’ve had no problems adjusting to them at all.”
