Living with partial blindness or visual impairment is challenging, but not impossible, especially with the right tools at your side. Having a reliable phone in your pocket that’s specifically adjusted for your eyesight problems can make life so much easier. But what features should you be on the lookout for?

  1. Large buttons

Not being able to see well means a never-ending barrage of missed keystrokes and typos, at least if you’re trying to type on a regular phone. But the larger the buttons, the harder it gets to miss the target.

  1. Adjusted screen

With eyesight problems, trying to read small-sized text is like trying to decipher a rocket science equation. But if you take the time to find the right phone for you, preferably the one with large, non-cluttered menus, you’re going to make everything much easier to handle.

  1. SOS trigger

Your phone is far more than merely a communications device; it’s also a means of alerting others that you’re dealing with an emergency. Whether it be health-related complications, an assault, or an accident, it’s imperative to have a way to communicate your situation to others without losing too much time.

  1. Speed dialing

As a visually impaired individual, you probably want to spend the least amount of time possible to call someone. Combating your way through endless menus is not an option. But with the help of speed dialing, every single button on your phone could serve as a way to initiate a voice conversation, and it’s up to you to connect each single one of them to the appropriate number. One of them could be your significant other, then there are emergency numbers, your friends… you get the idea.

  1. Hearing aid compatibility

With old age, other health problems are likely to follow, and your hearing is likely not as sharp as it used to be back in the day. But if you get a phone that’s hearing aid compatible, all of a sudden, many hearing-related problems are resolved in the blink of an eye.

  1. Cleverly-designed warning system

Low battery warnings are the smallest of concerns for those who can see well. But for those who cannot, such warnings are easy to slip by unnoticed. But what if there was a warning system suitable that is loud and hard to ignore? It may be a nuisance for the regular users, but for the visually impaired, it’s heaven’s grace.

  1. Additional features

From here on out, any additional features you require are up to your individual needs and preferences. While some may prefer a flashlight to be installed, this would not make a difference for others. But the main idea is forming a checklist, finding suitable products on the market, then choosing the right one simply becomes a matter of going for the option that ticks all the boxes.

Conclusion

The functions we’ve listed should be more than enough to make the use of your phone an absolute cakewalk, even if your eyes are not what they used to be anymore. Are you excited to finally improve the quality of your life by getting one of these handy gadgets?
