Telescopic spectacles are commonly prescribed to the visually impaired. However, many such low vision patients cannot use spectacle magnifiers effectively. This may be because these patients cannot maintain adequate stability of the magnified image on the retina during head movements. Head movements are the ubiquitous consequence of ambulation, tremor, and postural instability.
