About Owner Bob Schrepfer

Having worked in the low-vision business of the optical industry since 1987, owner Bob Schrepfer understands what it takes to educate and assist those that are visually impaired, legally blind, or totally blind when it comes to providing the right low-vision devices for their visual independence.

 

To Bob there is no better feeling than helping those with visual challenges to be able to recognize loved ones' faces, see print or personal handwriting magnified, and even watch TV or see their computer again with the latest in magnification and text-to-speech technology.


Establishing relationships built on trust between Eye Care Professionals, community support groups and the individuals in need is what sets Bob apart from all others in this field. In addition to ensuring that his customers get the best device for their visual needs, The Magnification Company provides all product demonstrations right in their home or office at no cost or obligation to purchase; a one-of-kind practice in today’s market.

 

Outside the office, Bob enjoys his family, church, outdoor activities, sports and spending time with his four-legged kids, Harvey and Luna Mae.


Bob would love to share his knowledge and experience with you if you are having challenges with your visual independence due to Macular Degeneration, Glaucoma, Diabetic Retinopathy, or any other eye condition that may be restricting your quality of life.
