Something my dad does that I will probably do is get a silicone mat or some sort of grippy surface in a solid color and use that as a surface for pills or placing items that might disappear in busy backgrounds. He uses it daily for medications and im going to use mine for when I put down something small and lose it. I lost a spice packet yesterday because my counter was too busy

Glad you talked about those things. I need things to be where I will just know they are. You probably know this now, but if not, you can now use your iPhone or tablet as your camera when you join online events.

I am also partually sighted with limited vision and I use a white cane with a roller ball tip.I live at home with my family and 2 female spayed therapy cats.
I get help from my family and the cnib foundation and my friends and a o&m specialist.I have some appliences marked and I am in the process of getting my freedom and indepence back after four months of having to rely on my mom,niece and a friend or two to help me to get to my eye appointments and a recent cataract operation on my right eye in early september of this year.
I can cook and bake my meals and desserts that are diabetic friendly meals etc with the help from my mom.
I love and enjoyed watching your video on how to live independently and I can't live in clutter and I know where everything is inside the house.Nothing on the floors or stairs and everything is put in it's proper place.
It is the buses. and the bus routes and bus numbers that I have problems with because the city of edmonton changed everything and I am unsure or nervous about taking the buses in my city

Well Well well and how do you know that after years and years of denial, right at the edge of my final years above earth, I'm doing in my home exactly the same things as you do in yours. The reason why I am here in the first place is, that I really can't find anything, from my glasses (I usually buy 2 pairs in case I loose one) to my chargers and almost everything in between. And today I succumbed to the idea that as well as adapting my place to old age, my daughter finally convinced me to go a little further and also adapt it for my obvious "other issues" (I'm not prepared yet to call myself handicapped). Maybe in a few years when I really can't fake it anymore.
My solution for the glasses and most important chargers are Air Tags because I use Apple products. I really didn't want to buy them because they are expensive and according to myself a bit to nerdy but now they are becoming increasingly indispensable.
Another solution for falling pills is just to leave them and hope that the vacuum cleaner takes them next time. It's hopeless to even try to find them. Sometimes I do truly archeological finds in that respect. Falling things are a nightmare. It takes me ages to find them and it's not so easy anymore to crawl on all four as it used to be.
Anyways, thank you for this video and I hope to see you again soon.

I'm recently visually impaired and it's so nice to meet fellow VIPS. I am learning so much from then. Thank you 🙋

I'm partially sighted (low vision) and I agree on the busyness background is a nightmare to see anything!
I also need to have things particular set-up order.
I also rent(ed) apartments and some have busy counters. There are those temporarily wall/counter top paper that can cover the busyness that helped! I also lay out a solid board or thin cutting board/mat on the counter in specific area to contrast things.
I cannot see clear/transparent cups either, I own transparent glasses but has design on them so I can see whats being poured.

Nice video = Vision Impaired since 2011 - RP - I stopped using glass cups of any kind - I only use disposable cups. cost a bit but I never break cups anymore, its safer, and less dish washing.

I'm slowly becoming blind and it's interesting to see that I've been already intuitively following every tip you expressed in this video, I feel less alone!
