Low Vision

"Low vision" covers a variety of different kinds of vision problems caused by diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Low vision means that your vision is still useful, but is worse than can be readily helped by glasses - and specifically that you have trouble reading without some form of external magnification.

HumanWare makes a wide variety of products for low vision - from portable magnifiers such as PocketViewer to a desktop unit for daily tasks (SmartView) and a transportable product for sustained reading (myReader2). We are innovators in this field, offering products widely recognized as among the best available anywhere.
