Abstract
Smartphone technology when used appropriately can be a great addition for helping people with low vision and blindness to become self-reliant to a great extent and aid in their inclusion in society. Many applications are available like Talkback, Kebo, Envision AI, Mani, etc along with inbuilt features in smartphones which can aid in daily activities,mobility, and shopping. These are being used to make the visually impaired more self-reliant and serve as a great armamentarium, be it for earning a livelihood, a continuation of studies, or leisure activities. More widespread dissemination of information on these applications among the ophthalmology fraternity is the need of the hour so that their assitive potential can be put to maximum benefit.
