A visual aid for directing incident light rays received from an object sourc e onto remaining optically responsive portions of an eye comprises a first lig ht reflecting optical element (4) resistively pivotally attached to a frame (8) , such that the pivot axis (10) is in a generally horizontal plane; and, a second light reflecting optical element (22) resistively pivotally attached to the frame (8), such that the pivot axis (10) is in a generally horizontal plane. The second light reflecting optical element (22) is laterally spaced from the first light reflecting optical element (4) such that the first and second light reflecting optical elements (4), (22) cooperate to direct the incident light onto the remaining optically responsive portions of the eye (32). In a different embodiment of the present invention, at least one corrective lens (36) is positioned between the object source (34) and the optically responsive portion of the eye (32). The present invention also includes the method of using two laterally spaced resistively pivotal light reflecting optical elements cooperating together to redirect incident light onto an optically responsive portion of an eye, as well as the visual aid produced by such method.
