In Windows and almost every web site on the Internet, if you have a mouse  
with the center wheel, simply hold down the Ctrl button and move the center  
wheel on the mouse toward the top and the type size will increase.   The most 
this can cost is a new mouse.
 
Good luck in getting your sight restored.

Hi  Ann,

I don't know what might come with the Windows operating 
system  to magnify the screen.  However, there are products 
available to do  this although kind of expensive.

I am a blind person who uses a screen  reader and the company 
that produces the software I use also sells a  screen 
magnifier.  There is a trial version available.   Information 
is  at:

The  link wraps.

I certainly wish you well in regaining your  sight.
