Developing printed materials for patients with visual deficiencies.
In preparing educational materials for patients with vision deficiencies, nurses must take into consideration type size, typeface, and color. Patients surveyed preferred 14-point, sans serif type. Black type on white paper was also preferred. Collaboration between the nurse and the graphic designer will help ensure that the printed material will be understandable to the target group.
