I live with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. My occupational therapist at Fresno General Hospital has assessed me and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $7,450.
My current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment I could get to the shops and visit friends. It would change my everyday life and my ability to work from home.
We've applied to two charities already and received small contributions; this campaign covers the rest.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $7,450 goes:
• Fitting and training sessions: $360
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $7,000
• Delivery and set-up: $90
Thanks for reading all this.
- Keith
