Low Vision Consultation

☕ **Can you see your mug? Contrast makes all the difference.**

Look at the photo: white mugs on a black non-slip mat. Even if your sight is limited, that strong contrast makes the mugs stand out and helps you find them, pick them up and put them back with confidence.

For partially sighted people, contrast is one of the simplest and most powerful tools for independence at home. And the fix is easy:

✅ Buy a plain black non-slip mat at your nearest shop
✅ Cut it to fit your shelf or cupboard
✅ Place light-coloured items (white mugs, plates, bowls) on top

The mat also stops items from sliding, so it's safer too. Small changes, big difference! 💛

Vision loss is not a full stop, it's simply a comma.

If you don't have a liquid level Meter handy, a simple ping pong ball can also get the job done 👌

Anyone in PE that could manufacture this please? Or any recommendations plz? 🙏

In short - It's a magnifying glass lamp stand with a movable gooseneck that latches on to the surface with a suction cup🤓

Good Morning ☀️

We were blessed to spend some time with the Elders that are visually impaired and sighted at El Shaddai Old Age Home.

We picked up that they are in need of crossword puzzles- The larger print is specifically extra helpful and then just overall boardgames.

If you perhaps have some boardgames/ puzzle books to donate please, the elders will really appreciate it🙏

Or alternatively, if there is perhaps anybody with the resource to copy the larger print puzzle pages for the group please, it will be highly appreciated 🙏

You are welcome to drop it off at the center 👇
