I have been an Optacon user since 1978 and had my training at the Telesensory
headquarters in Palo Alto, California.
For me, it was my first trip on my own and it sure was an experience that I
won't forget. Yes, it was good.
My wife is also an Optacon user and she got her Optacon a few years before
me.
We are both still using our Optacons and when we find something wrong or not
working right we get it repaired right away.
We can't live without our Optacons and I use mine daily.

Congratulations also to you, Camille!
Have any of you ever thought what hapens to your Optacon when the time
comes when you do not need it any more? This happens to everybody some
day, but the Optacon is a long-lasting device assuming that service has
been performed whenever needed.
I have thought about this, even though I probably do have many years of
Optacon usage left. But in case of something unexpected would happen, and
even otherwise, I would like to know that my Optacon would not be just
thrown away as something unnecessary. I would not even like it to be just
taken somewhere to collect dust instead ofbeing used of somebody!

The Optacon has got us closer to the sighted than most other gadgets have.
