Living with low vision can present unique challenges, but with the right strategies and tools, you can navigate daily life more smoothly. Here are some practical tips to help you thrive:
Daily Life Tips
Organise Your Space
- Keep Items Consistent: Place commonly used items like keys, glasses, and phones in the same spot every day.
- Use Labels: Label items with high-contrast stickers or tactile markers to identify them easily.
Use High Contrast
- Colour Contrast: Use high-contrast colours (e.g., black on white, or yellow on blue) for better visibility.
- Lighting: Ensure your home is well-lit. Use task lighting for specific activities like reading or cooking.
