Quick Tips
Color and Contrast Hints
for People with Low Vision
- Place a dark placemat under a light-colored plate or bowl or vice
versa. Use dinner plate contrasting with your entree: dark plate for
fish or rice; light plate for beef or dark
vegetables.
- Place your hairbrush and comb on a mat or tray that contrast with
the top of the dresser.
- Select a bright or light-colored case for your eyeglasses.
- Use clear shoe polish for all colors of shoes.
- Alternate light and dark colors in your closet — contrasting
sections will help to locate the color you need.
- Differentiate your keys from one another — place a bright piece of
tape or a bright-colored key sleeve on your main house key.
