Why we know this works!

We love this big button phone because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we watch people squint at tiny keypads, misdial twice, and then quietly stop calling the people they love. What kind of phone is easiest to use with low vision? One with truly large, high contrast numbers: these buttons are 1.25 inches with 3/4 inch numbers, available in black with white print or white with black print, so every digit is bold and readable instead of a guess. This is especially helpful for people with macular degeneration, glaucoma, or other low vision, and for anyone whose fingers keep missing small buttons. The user still has to remember or look up phone numbers to dial; if memory loss or dementia makes dialing itself the hurdle, our Picture Phone with one touch photo buttons is the better choice.
