Back to Work or Study My Gadget Suggestions 



iPhone 15 Pro and Apple Watch SE



iPad Pro



AirPods Pro 3rd Generation



Mac Bluetooth Mini Keyboard



Arkon Desk Smart Phone STand



JAWS, Zoomtext or Fusion



Large Print USB Keyboard



Range of optical hand held magnifiers



Daylight Smart Go Lamp



Explore 12 Video Magnifier



KWF Telescopic Cane



Mini Guide



Stellatrek



Brailliant BI40X Display



Classic Perkins Brailler



SensePlayer OCR ET



One thing that Vision Australia Vision Store does not sell which I highly recommend, are either the Tile Tag for Android or iOS users or the Apple AirTags from Apple for iPhone.



And a second thing smile, is the Accessible Power bank charger from AT Guys to keep your smart phone, Stellatrek charged etc.



Oh, and one more thing, a monitor arm is amazing to bring your monitor  closer to you.
