ABC - Plus

A tap, listen and learn game with letters, numbers and shapes, especially for kids with low vision. Black or white background with bright red, yellow, or blue figures.

ABC Bright Little Eyes Plus is a simple tap, listen, and learn game designed for the child with low vision/Cortical Visual Impairment (CVI). Research has shown that children with CVI can have difficulty seeing things with a lot of visual clutter and often are able to see objects in a favored color such as red or yellow. We have designed this app with this is mind. A simple black or white background with contrasting letters, numbers and shapes in red, yellow, or blue.

We created this app because we realized our son really struggled to see. And not being able to see made it hard for him to learn. His vision therapist had advised us that our first goal was to get him to “use” his vision. More complex apps became something he would tap on but would struggle to look at. We have discovered that he can see best with yellow on a black background. With lots of repetition we are seeing him begin to not only “use” his vision but learn. The son we thought may never see well enough to learn is our “Bright Little Eyes”.
