Why we know this works!

We love these Velcro bump dots because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we spend home visits labeling appliances so hands can find what eyes no longer can. How do you make a whole house usable again for someone losing their sight? You mark it room by room: phone keys, computer keyboards, remotes, the microwave, and with 600 dots in this pack you can do the kitchen, bedroom, and living room without rationing. The hook and loop texture gives a distinct fuzzy feel under the fingertip, and the dots can be removed from most surfaces without leaving residue if you need to reposition one. These are especially useful for people who are blind or have advancing vision loss from glaucoma, macular degeneration, or diabetes. Mark only the essential buttons on each device, since too many dots defeats the purpose. If you want a marker you can read a printed label through, the Clear Bump Dots - 20 are the better pick.

What The Experts Say

Katie Tipton
COTA/L
"These Velcro bump dots provide a way for someone to feel what they are doing, especially when they have low vision. The bump dots allow a person to use one of their other senses besides sight, so they can accomplish whatever task they need and remain independent."
