We work closely with the&#xA0;<a href="https://www.fightingblindness.org/">Foundation Fighting Blindness</a>, which focuses on research regarding different inherited retinal diseases. We are familiar with a lot of the other vision impaired/blind advocacy organizations such as&#xA0;<a href="https://nfb.org/">NFB</a>&#xA0;and&#xA0;<a href="https://www.afb.org/">AFB</a>.Tools Brad and Bryan use: For devices, we use a lot of Apple products. They have some user-friendly zoom-in functions. We like them better than most low-vision tech. We&apos;ll often use the camera on our phone to zoom in on something physical that we want to see, such as a restaurant menu. For reading text on our computer and phone, we use the text-to-speech function.

We made a small series on YouTube for questions about Stargardt&apos;s, you can watch it <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UbkTjQaGkA" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>.<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UbkTjQaGkA" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">&#xA0;</a>The biggest risk with Stargardt&apos;s disease is not the impact on vision, it&apos;s the potential impact on one&apos;s self-esteem. There are folks with many vision impairments (some more severe than SD) that have done it all.It&apos;s important to start from a very practical place. Give yourself the tools, accommodations, extra time, habits, ADA enforced accommodations, etc. that allow you to be successful. It&apos;s a learning phase. Before you pass any judgments on what you can or can&apos;t do, give yourself all of the advantages.The real trick is getting comfortable with being uncomfortable - resourcefulness, assertiveness, creativity, resilience, etc. are vastly more valuable than a few lines on the eye chart. Be willing to embrace adjustment, awkwardness, an uncomfortable situation, and you&apos;ll come out way ahead. We learned a lot from a young age, facing challenges that others will not face until late in their adult lives.
