Question for #lowvision and folks using adaptive and assistive devices who are having trouble seeing offline or online. The problem is neurological damage, one from a stupid molly trick TBI long ago and the other a side effect to the occipital lobe. I got lucky, most went blind.

My whole life I've had incredible vision, so acute I was nicknamed Eagle Eyed Molly. At 40, normal onset of need for reading glasses. My eyes are not the problem, they are normal thank heavens. Its traumatic injury to the visual areas of the brain's processing and I need help!

Assistive devices: Better voice to text input on Android and iPhone. Some AIs are pretty good, like otter.ai - I'm a fast talking New York/New Jersey girl who has pressured speech clinically as well. HA! I drive these programs nuts. It's both embarrassing and funny

I dislike audio for books. I dislike reading on a device. I want to hold a paper book in my hands. A cup of tea and kitty beside. I want to speak into a machine and have it not require me to use my hands, also impaired to a fatiguing degree. "RECTO auto" Is autocorrect to me.
