How do the seeing impaired test, and read/determine results of daily blood sugar diabetes tests?


87-year old, legally blind mother can't see to read results of her daily in-home blood tests. There must be numerous blind people with diabetis. How do they read/determine results of their daily blood sugar tests?

My mom used to have a blood test machine that talked to tell her what to do when, and what the results were. It was kind of big, but it worked great for her since she couldn't see well. Ask your doctor about it.
they have a machine kinda thing (dont no da name)that takes your blood and tells you you your surgar rate.that may help
Find an Optometrist or Opthalmologist in your area that does low vision testing.
They will have the proper literature for ordering such equipment.
You may also want to check with the American Diabetic Association.
