Maybe this is victim-blaming, but my suggestion to the post’s author is to update her prescription. I have astigmatism. This solution worked for me.

Not all astigmatism is easily corrected with glasses/contacts. I suggest reading up on irregular astigmatism: https://www.warreneyecarecenter.com/better-vision-correction...

That’s interesting. I had not heard of this condition.

I am sympathetic to those with disabilities different from my own. As a presenter, I would be happy to provide reasonable accommodations. Given the vast array of visual disabilities, I wonder if there is not some kind of common denominator solution, like providing a plain text, screen-reader-compatible version in advance.

I’m actually thinking, I wonder if I should build a service where one: 1. Uploads slides. 2. Gets a QR code. 3. Puts the QR code on the title slide. 4. Attendees point their smart phones at the presentation to get a: a. downloadable copy of the slides b. alternate versions c. other materials like the presenter’s LinkedIn d. a field for posting questions

If someone reads this and wants to build it, please go ahead.
