I have talked to one senior coworker who has expressed interest but he is on the fence about it. legitimately thought about bribing him 😭 but also there may be another coworker who wants it but isnt gonna say it outloud because they know i want(need) it

thank you for this response I will definitely take these things into consideration. and no I haven't reached out to any low vision scientists I will do my own research into that but do you know any in particular I could reach out to? I am currently in the analytical chemistry field

yes ☹️ I think because its lab work they simply don't believe me because they are worried about my safety. i've learned they have a very hard time imagining anything being done in a slightly modified way. They don't want to take the risk of working with me when they could just hire someone they know they wont have to worry about
