We’re here to support you through all the stages and severity of sight loss. People lose their sight for a wide variety of reasons, including age related conditions, genetic conditions and eye-health problems. However, losing your sight does not necessarily mean losing your independence, nor does it mean that you need to struggle alone or lose contact with people.
BISS is commissioned by Buckinghamshire Council and provides a wide range of support to children and adults with sight, hearing, and dual sensory loss including enablement and habilitation services; equipment provision; information and advice; and registration of sensory loss.
