Product Information

Cover mouth and nose with mask. Loop the elastic straps around your ears and adjust the toggles, if available, so there are no gaps between your face and the mask. Glare, magnification, and adapting your remote may be just what some television viewers need. Still, for others, this will not make the television, programs, and menus completely accessible. A great leap forward for greater television accessibility occurred with the Twenty-First Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act, or CVAA passed in 2012. Before looking at some environmental factors affecting television viewing for consumers with vision loss, it’s worth considering an entirely new definition of television. Television programming is now just content that traditionally was only available on that appliance with a large screen, often situated in a common home area. Remember that as the magnification strength increases, the field of view decreases. In other words, you may see greater detail in a smaller area of the TV screen with a monocular but much less of the screen than you might see through TV glasses.

We often think of optical solutions when we think about magnification, so it is not uncommon for individuals to ask for “glasses” to help with television viewing. And the answer is Yes; there are glasses to magnify the television screen. Over the past 10 years, I’ve done numerous demonstrations and assessments with such glasses, but in most cases, people find these either ineffective or cumbersome. Ask your low vision specialist or vision rehabilitation professional if you can try a pair of “TV glasses” to determine if they will work for you. A Monocular or TelescopeA final environmental accommodation that comes in handy is creating greater access to the television remote. TV remotes can become difficult to use if the lighting is poor; the print is too small to see clearly; the remote has poor contrast; or the number of buttons becomes overwhelming.

The CVAA includes comprehensive accessibility guidelines for communications devices, such as televisions, computers, and phones. Two of the most exciting provisions for television viewing have increased accessibility for user controls and menus and a mandated quota for video-described programming.While television programming and the hardware used to access this programming has changed, some of the fundamentals related to watching the TV and increasing access, such as increasing magnification and reducing glare, remain the same.

Magnification, or making the picture on the TV screen larger, can be achieved in several different ways that don’t always require better or stronger glasses: While a large print remote with larger buttons and better contrast may come in handy, it is often only one or two buttons that are used regularly and are difficult to find. In this case, marking these buttons with a raised or tactile marking can be helpful: apparatus and instruments for conducting, switching, transforming, accumulating, regulating or controlling the distribution or use of electricity; However, mounting evidence shows that the blue light from your television and computer screens can harm your vision. See the lighting and glare section. Lylas G. Mogk, M.D. also discusses the blue light hazard at Risk Factors for Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD).The WHO recommends that you clean hands with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water before putting on a mask. Audio description is not just limited to videos, However. It may be implemented in live performances of all types and delivered by a radio receiver, iOS app, or some other separate device. Another optical option might be a hand-held monocular or telescope. These can be held up to either eye or, in some cases, mounted to existing glasses to help you see greater detail. Monoculars come in magnification strengths greater than 2X, more than the maximum magnification available in “TV glasses.” apparatus and instruments for recording, transmitting, reproducing or processing sound, images or data; The TELEVISION KILLED YOUR VISION trademark was assigned an Application Number # UK00003688488 by the UK Intellectual Property Office (UKIPO).

Legislation, such as the Twenty-First Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act, will also continue driving greater accessibility and increased options for television viewing. diving suits, divers’ masks, ear plugs for divers, nose clips for divers and swimmers, gloves for divers, breathing apparatus for underwater swimming; Perhaps the greatest changes in television viewing, including the increasing ways television programming is delivered—on smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, and through Internet streaming services—are yet to come.The TELEVISION KILLED YOUR VISION trademark was assigned an Application Number # 018511666 – by the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO). Additionally, the CVAA mandated that some of the most popular broadcast and cable networks offer 50 hours of prime time or children’s audio-described video per quarter. This is four hours each week. What is Audio Description (AD) for Video? One of the most common challenges people report after experiencing blindness/ low vision is watching television. They often report an inability to see the actors’ faces, printed text on the screen, or the television menus and accompanying channel guide. Television viewing has changed dramatically in recent years, and the number of ways to approach these challenges has increased exponentially. Which is a good thing, right? In brief, the CVAA mandates that any devices airing broadcast or cable programming have user controls and menus used for locating programs and turning on video descriptions that are accessible by users who are blind or visually impaired. As a result, many Smart TVs (televisions that connect to the Internet and do much more than provide traditional cable and broadcast reception) are now more accessible with self-voicing menus, and cable companies such as Comcast are incorporating text-to-speech into their programming menus. Audio-described movies or programming include additional narration accompanying the film to describe the action that might otherwise need to be accessed visually.
