My husband suffers from severe glaucoma, with complete sight loss in one eye. After struggling with electronic magnifiers, we bought a Hark Reader following a demo from HumanWare. It's been transformative. He now reads all his mail, newspapers, and even completed a book unaided. Thanks to the HumanWare team for arranging prompt delivery.
