Struggling with my vision more and more
It's getting harder to read, even black on white is appearing as grey forcing me to strain.
I don't know if I told you so if this is a reapeat skip it.
I bought a tablet, not for woking with but as a vision assist tool..... the camera. When shopping I am hoping it will help me read labels and prices, the wife is fed up with me bringing home the wrong stuff, like flavoured coffee.... YUK.
I looked at the magnifying camera's offered by the CNIB and while they sounded good they didn't sound any better than a tablet and the base camera was 5 times the price I paid.
So far this one works well however today will be the big test... I'll let you knpw the results later.
