Diabetes aids and products for people with visual or physical impairment.
Common complications of diabetes include visual impairment and problems with manual dexterity because of peripheral neuropathy. These conditions make diabetes self-care activities difficult unless techniques and equipment can be individually modified. To help diabetes educators and their clients locate aids and products to meet their special needs, this paper presents a compilation of aids and products and how and where to obtain them. A complete bibliography is included.
