A Complete Standalone Low Vision Magnifier

When a sighted person walks into a library they can sit and read books easily, but what about the millions of elderly people with vision loss? Statistics show that most people with vision loss do not visit their library as often as they might. The biggest barrier for them is they can't read normal size printed text. The MPD-12 can solve that for a significant number of patrons.

HOW CAN A MPD-12 HELP?

The MPD-12 is very easy to use and very convenient, especially for reading a book or magazine.

By having a MPD-12 in your library, practically anyone with low vision will be able to sit comfortably and read a book. Statistics show that over the age of 65, the percentage of people with sight deterioration rapidly increases. While some people can have perfect vision in their senior years, you will find that almost all patrons will find convenient magnification to be of benefit.

In the library, a patron can use the MPD-12 with extrememly little or no training. Simply just turn it on, place the magnifier on the reading material and start to enjoy reading the large, clear text on the screen.





 

HOW EASY IS IT TO USE?

One large, easy to see red button turns the unit On/Off - That is all that is needed.

Place the magnifier on some text and start reading.
