Talking Scale
A talking scale automatically turns on when you step on it and will speak in pounds or kilograms. These scales can be one of many vision aids for macular degeneration. A clear, understandable voice will state your weight so that you don't have to struggle to read the numbers. However, they usually have a large number display as well for easier reading. They are battery operated. Some of them offer the option of turning on or off the talking feature. This a great visual aid for those with macular degeneration who have a hard time seeing the numbers on a scale. Talking Scale ReviewsGary Edwards"I bought these scales for my father. He is 79 and has severe macular degeneration, so he cannot see much anymore. They work fine for him. The female voice is understandable and loud enough to hear. The speech is at a speed to understand fine. The response time from getting on the scales to when the weight is reported is slower than we expected but is acceptable."
"The scale arrived promptly (2 days), packed securely. Set up 
was a breeze. The scale works properly and the volume can be heard without difficulty. Accuracy is within.2 of a lb, as compared to more elaborate professional health agency's scale, which it replaced.It looks stylish and is small enough not to be in the way; but large enough to be sturdy and secure to stand on. All-in-all this is an excellent value and a good purchase for anyone who is having trouble seeing an ordinary scale."
