Low-Vision Bathroom Safety for Seniors

For someone with low vision, the bathroom's wet surfaces and hard edges are hard to judge. Bright, glare-free lighting that comes on automatically, grab bars in a color that contrasts the wall, and mats with a visible edge make the room readable and safer to move through.
