Compact 8 Optelec

6.3 Light Sensitivity

Compact 8 is designed to minimize discomfort from light sensitivity
during long-term use of this device. This feature reduces the
wavelengths of light associated with this discomfort. The goal is to
increase comfort while maintaining acceptable luminance and contrast
levels. Users with many types of eye conditions may benefit from this
feature, but especially those having macular degeneration or retinitis
pigmentosa.
To enable this feature, go to Main Menu > Appearance and tap on
Light Sensitivity. When selected, the Light Sensitivity feature is
enabled.

6.4 Edge Effects

The Edge Effects screen is designed to help you recognize objects by
removing clutter and enhancing edges. With this feature enabled,
contrast is improved to help objects stand out against the background.
For true color or enhanced color, two options are available: disabled
(default) or enabled.
For any two-color combination, four options are available: disabled
(default), smooth, edge only, or highlight.
A description of each type of edge effect follows, along with samples.
