Enhanced Vision Launches New Website That Helps People With Low Vision Challenges

Low vision makes  life’s common activities like reading the newspaper, viewing a web site, or even reading the doctor’s instructions a challenge. Enhanced Vision, a leading manufacturer of low vision products designed specifically for people who have macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy or other low vision conditions, has launched a new web site that focuses on social media integration, usability and accessibility.

Huntington Beach, CA —May 6, 2010—For millions of low vision and legally blind people, even the simplest activities can be a challenge.

“We wanted to build a low vision community web site. A web site where you can view the latest news, blogs, and articles about low vision. The new website was designed with large easy to read type, extremely organized content and a powerful site search to quickly find what you are looking for.” says Ammer Naber, Web Manager of Enhanced Vision.

Enhanced Vision manufacturers a complete line of low vision products for people with eye conditions such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and retinitis pigmentosa. The company’s products allow people with low vision to read, write, and enjoy loved ones once again.

“When a company that specializes in dealing with customers who have low vision provides a web site, it’s important that all of our visitors have equal access to the important information they need,” according to Mr. Naber.

Their new site addresses that by providing low vision product information, educational, and support materials for people with low vision caused by eye conditions such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and retinitis pigmentosa. The site also serves caregivers of people with low vision, low vision doctors, agencies and educators.

In order to make their information as easy as possible to find, the company executed a social media integration strategy that ties in the company’s blogs and low vision information pages with a powerful yet simple-to-use search engine. The end result is a website that delivers usability and accessibility to low vision users.

Enhanced Vision is known for providing high quality solutions for people with low vision.  These desktop and portable low vision solutions include the Merlin family, the Acrobat family, the Amigo and the Pebble.
