“We provided for free a Low Vision Home TV Magnification System for a mother and 2 daughters who had a rare condition called congenital aniridia which left all 3 of them without an iris, extremely hyperopic with astigmatism, thick glasses, extremely sensitive to light, and very poor visual acuity. This system enlarges their homework and books so they can see and perform normally like other people. This was very gratifying.”
