Text: We are a small team of Informatics students at the University of Washington. For our Capstone project, we are designing a low vision simulation application that enables the user to see through another person’s eyes to more fully appreciate the challenges the visually impaired individuals face. In addition to conveying a wide spectrum of visual diseases and disorders, we will include individual experiences of users who are affected by their visual impairment or low vision. If you have any questions or concerns about this study, please contact jessielz@uw.edu. Please read: If you do not have a specific visual disease or disorder, this survey is not for you. If you need to wear corrective lenses because you do not have 20/20 vision, we are not counting that as a visual disorder for this Capstone project. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58944e42f5e231c597b37329/1497916945966-5R7AR4ODW8J2FXVEJ675/userjourney.png VisualEyes User journey map of actions, touch points, pain points, and opportunities for stages of the app (learn, download, explore, experience, share, and discuss/educate). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58944e42f5e231c597b37329/1497914768068-1MB8C4YM0HRZGT9SP3OT/Moodboard.png VisualEyes Mood board displays images of swimming pool water; blue iris (eye); blue poster saying “I’ll just rest my eyes for a second” in yellow and white type; light and sky blue crystal balls; and five color blocks: light blue, blue, teal, navy blue, and indigo blue. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58944e42f5e231c597b37329/1498373422338-UXA2ENPNC7K04QJYN4DM/Loading+Screen.png VisualEyes Loading screen.
