Rare with Flair

34. shouting from the rooftops about assistive technology


Listen Later

hi hello hey and welcome back!

This week, we talk all about assistive technology devices we use to make life easier with low vision. Starting from childhood and the low tech tools we used, we walk through the tools we use as adults and why we love them. Spoiler: we get really passionate about our favorite things because they have very literally changed our lives, without exaggeration.

As always, thanks for listening and we’ll see you in two weeks!
