Low Vision Accessibillity
HI my name is NIkhil Dhage. I am an legally blind visually impared individual. I recently bought the meta quest 3. I was interested in exploring VR/XR to see if it could possibly help me for my needs...
Hi NIkhil
I am also a low vision user on the quest 3. A few tips I could suggest for you is that if you "undock" a window (drag it out of the default interface above the menu bar) so that it is floating wherever you want, you should be able to get a bit closer to it before it goes white now. Another useful way to make windows larger is to make them 'full screen' The icon in the top right that has the 4 arrows pointing outwards. If you are using the quest sitting down, I suggest start standing and move the virtual windows where you want them to be in your room first. Then you should be able to sit closer to the VR window to see the content better. Does that make sense?
You probably already have found it, but in the settings under accessibility, you can set the text size of the menus a bit larger as well. It's not as big as we would like it, but it is better than the default size.
One last tip, in the meta browser, you can zoom the content on there by using both controllers and "pinching " like on a smart phone. (move the pointer cursors away from each other) You can then with one controller, drag the content around at the new scale.
I hope some of these ideas help! Like you, hoping Meta continues to add more features for low vision.
