Christmas is here and with that comes beautiful Christmas light displays. How does someone with low vision enjoy the lights?
First, grab a mug of hot cocoa and head out. Once you are there, describe in detail the different lights. Describe if it is Santa Clause or a Gingerbread man with a candy cane. Mention the colors of lights. Be as descriptive as possible.
This helps your low vision friend feel like they are able to experience the lights even though they might not see them as well.

Christmas is around the corner! What do you get for your low vision family member or friend?
Talking clocks or watches are a great option. If you want something more Hi-tech, devices such as Alexa or Google Assistant can help with reminders and several other tasks. An iPad has a magnifier to help someone with low vision see the screen easier.
Low Vision Strategies is glad to provide training on these devices.

Thanksgiving is among us and with that comes great food!
It may be hard to manage your diabetes. You can control it by taking a walk 15 minutes after a meal. This can reduce insulin resistance by up to 50 percent!
You can eat whatever you want, but do so in moderation. A glass of wine is also fine in moderation. If you do drink, please do so responsibly.

Please be mindful of blind people while in public. The white cane or guide dog indicates a visual impairment. If you see someone with a cane or dog, step aside and let them through. There is no need to stare.
If they appear to need assistance, ask them. They will let you know if they are in need.

Testimonial provided by Ruby K.

Marlene was very patient with me while I was learning how to use the magnifier on my phone. She never got impatient with me. Marlene was always polite. I would call her again if I need additional services.

On November 5th millions of Americans will head to the poles to cast their vote for the next President of The United States.

How do people with low vision mark their ballots?

One option is the accessible voting machine. This allows those with low vision to vote independently. Simply rotate a dial until you hear your preferred candidate’s name, then press the select button. Once you have made your selections, press the cast Ballot button.

These voting machines are not available at all polling sites or it may not be working. Have a backup plan. You can have someone trustworthy help you. They will need to sign a document stating that they agree to mark your ballot according to your wishes even if it goes against their views. The final option is to have a polling staff member assist you.

If you are low vision and choose to vote absentee, you can have two witnesses observe you fill out your ballot. You do not need to have it notarized if you have low vision. The witnesses need to sign an affidavit stating that he or she did not mark your ballot or persuade you one way or the other.
