[Trainer-talk] Kindle

[John Rempel]

I was recently working with a client with glaucoma who purchased the Kindle.
To give you a rough idea of his functional vision, he uses MAGic on a
computer at 2 to 3x with very little field loss. Right now he's right on the
cusp of being able to use it. Although it does have the ability to increase
the font size, the contrast level and viewable area of the Kindle itself is
fairly small. The Kindle seems to work for some, but is definitely not the
answer for many people.
