Chelsea: My name is Chelsea, I go to New College Worcester, and my eye condition is Optic Atrophy which means my optic nerves don’t work very well.

 

When I was at primary, I did a trial with SuperNova. I loved it so much. It was so easy to use, and now that I still use it I’m able to do all my school work on it. Mainly English, Geography and Maths; I found that so much more easy to be able to do my homework. I was able to go on the internet, I’m able to send emails, I can just do so much more using SuperNova.

 

I use the mouse pointer, so I have a dark blue mouse, I can see it better. I use the inverted colours, so if my eyes are on a bad day and don’t like the light, I can see it because I can make it darker. And I also use a lot of magnification. I was on a number 8 with my magnification, as I’ve got into secondary my eyes have got worse so now I’m a 16.

 

I use the speech when I’ve got something really long to read, or if my eyes aren’t working as good that day. I don’t have to then strain my eyes to read it.

 

SuperNova: Also I am excited to go and see my buddy dog Zak.

 

Chelsea: So when I’m in class doing SuperNova I can keep up with everyone else, I’m not delayed and behind. I was able to work the exact same as all my classmates, I was no different.

I will definitely keep using SuperNova, it’s such a big help.
