This week, we’ve been hearing about how the world of virtual reality is being made more accessible to blind and partially sighted people by ‘VR Oxygen’. We’ll find out how Apple’s ‘State of Mind’ feature aims to help with mental wellbeing. Plus, we’ll have an update on a new app trial for people with macular disease.
