Reading Bills, Books, and Bedtime Stories Again
After being told he was legally blind, Ivory believed he had lost the ability to enjoy one of life’s simplest pleasures—reading.
Thanks to generous donors, he received a closed-circuit television (CCTV) magnification system through the MedRVA Low Vision Center. For the first time in a decade, Ivory can read his mail, pay his bills, and even read alongside his grandchild.
