What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 23, 2026
This is a clinical reference tool that gives teachers, vision specialists, and families a structured method for figuring out what print size a person with low vision actually reads most effectively. Rather than guessing or defaulting to arbitrarily large text, it walks practitioners through a systematic process to match print size to functional reading ability. It's not a device — it's a guide you use during assessment, then set aside. If you're an educator writing an IEP or an AT specialist setting up a low vision workstation, this gives you a defensible, reproducible rationale for the print sizes you recommend. This tool supports clinical decision-making and doesn't replace a full low vision evaluation by a certified specialist.
