• Lowvisionglasses: Low vision glasses are head-mounted, handsfree wearable technology that offer text-to-speech capabilities in a product about the size of sunglasses. NuEyes is a popular brand. Glasses magnify anything a person looks at.
• Large print items: There are a variety of products designed for those with low vision. These include wall clocks with large, bold numbers for easy viewing. Enlarged television remote controls and large-print books or digital reader settings help people with AMD maintain some normalcy.
• Color contrast aids: Color or contrast can be used to make items easier to see and use. For example, the Keys U Can See Keyboard has black letters and numbers on a striking yellow keyboard to greatly improve visibility.
• Talking products: From watches to clocks to bathroom scales, voice-equipped products give users information via audio.
In addition to these aids, eye doctors can recommend other products and treatments to help mitigate the vision loss that occurs with age, from AMD, or other eye illnesses.
