A social worker can give you that. Make an appointment through your regional Flemish point of view . Together we will look at all the options, completely tailored to your needs. Licht en Liefde itself has a lot to offer, but it also brings you into contact with other services and supports you in this. The Light and Love Info Brochure (pdf) provides a brief overview of what Blindenzorg Licht en Liefde and its network partners can do for you. Do you wonder whether you have to pay for the assistance that Light and Love offers? The first conversation with Light and Love, in which we examine all the possibilities together, is free. After that, certain services are charged. If such a service is offered, it will be communicated in advance (when making the appointment) what it will cost. It also explains how you can possibly recover that cost through an allowance. The price of products that you order from Licht en Liefde is also communicated in advance. We do not sell certain products (such as reading aids and technological aids) ourselves - we give expert and objective advice about them and then refer you on if necessary. We do sell other products (such as ordinary aids) ourselves, because they are very difficult to find elsewhere. However, we are not a “shop” out for profit. In agreement with our people, you can sometimes get an aid “on sight” - this means that you can try it out and then return it if it does not help. Would you like advice on allowances, the intervention of the Flemish Agency for Persons with a Disability, social rates, tax benefits, parking card…? Er bestaat van alles, maar u moet het wel weten. Vaak moet u er op tijd bij zijn! In uw regionaal vlaamsoogpunt staan maatschappelijk assistenten klaar om deskundig te helpen, ook met de aanvragen zelf. U hebt een attest van de oogarts nodig? Download een 'Getuigeschrift van gezichtsonderzoek' om door de oogarts te laten invullen.
