In partnership with state vocational rehabilitation and special education agencies, a local university contributed interprofessional expertise in low vision rehabilitation to an established pre-employment transition services (Pre-ETS) program (Coduti, Herbert, Chiu, & Döke, 2017).

The addition of a low vision rehabilitation component contributed to meeting the functional vision needs of these students as they transitioned to college and postsecondary employment.
