Their main mission addresses vision issues, one of which is Low Vision which is an insufficient useable sight to accomplish the tasks of daily living. The Lions, through their Lions Low Vision Centers, provide free to the public, appropriate low vision devices, such as these keyboards, to people with decreased vision to assist them in improving their quality of life and maintaining their independence.
