About Special Vision Center
At Special Vision Center, we devote our practice to understanding and treating the unique vision needs of older adults. As we age, our eyes change in ways that can affect clarity, confidence, and quality of life — but too often, seniors feel brushed aside, rushed through appointments, or left without real answers.
Our purpose is simple: to provide the thoughtful, comprehensive care that seniors and their families deserve. Here, patients are never treated like a number or an afterthought. We take the time to listen, to learn your full story, and to uncover the factors that may have been missed or overlooked in the past. Every visit is designed to bring clarity, reassurance, and a renewed sense of direction.
Meet Dr. Barry Manson
A Specialist Dedicated to Elderly Eye Care
For decades, Dr. Barry Manson has built his career around one central belief: hope is never lost when expertise and effort are applied. His work is rooted in compassion, persistence, and a deep understanding of how aging affects the eyes — not just medically, but emotionally and practically.
Throughout his career, Dr. Manson has cared for countless seniors with chronic or complicated eye conditions. Many of his patients come to him after years of frustration, multiple diagnoses, or being told that “nothing more can be done.” Dr. Manson specializes in these complex situations, offering a fresh, thorough evaluation and a perspective that often reveals new insight or new possibilities.
Patients appreciate his calm approach, his clear explanations, and his commitment to making sure they understand what’s happening and why. Families appreciate the patience, dignity, and respect he shows to every individual who walks through the door.
Our Approach to Senior Eye Care
Thorough. Thoughtful. Tailored to You.
Senior vision care isn’t just about identifying a problem — it’s about understanding the entire life story that led to it. That’s why our process begins with more than just a quick examination. We take time to review your full medical history, your past treatments, your current concerns, and even the subtle changes you’ve experienced day-to-day.
This deeper look helps us identify overlooked issues, clarify confusing or conflicting past diagnoses, and create a treatment plan that truly fits your needs. Whether your goal is improved clarity, better comfort, or slowing the progression of a condition, we work with you to develop a plan that makes sense for your life.
A Place of Comfort, Hope, and Expertise
You’re Not Starting Over — You’re Moving Forward
Vision changes can be overwhelming — but you’re not facing them alone. At Special Vision Center, we’re here to bring knowledge, clarity, and compassionate support to every step of your journey. Our patients trust us because they feel heard, understood, and guided with care.
And while not every condition can be reversed, there is always something meaningful we can do: provide answers, relief, better stability, or a clearer path forward.
Your story doesn’t end with vision loss.
With the right care, it evolves — and so can your confidence.
