The absolutely most important thing is to not leave the dishwasher door open. Ever bang your shin on one of those? Oh boy!

It really doesn't take much adjustment. I've put a rubber band around the shampoo bottle so I can tell it's shampoo and not conditioner. I've put rubber bands on my kitchen spices, too. One for curry, two for nutmeg, three for cinnamon, etc.

Those are really the only adjustments I've made. The problem is when my wife makes adjustments. She rearranged the kitchen a few months ago and I still don't know where the lid to the blender goes. If there's a blind person in your house, DO NOT change things up without including them in your plans. It's better if you let the blind person decide where the food goes. A can of chili and a can of peaches are the same to us. So is a can of Pepsi and a can of Bud Light. If we put the groceries away ourselves we'll know where to reach for the items we want.

Other than that, just keep the floor clean. Push the chairs under the table when you're done eating, don't leave the box from Amazon on the porch, and don't leave glassware on the edge of the table or the counter.

Some things in the queue for consideration are talking heating controls, accessible washing machine, speech enabled TV,

What is the cause of the vision loss? Different eye conditions causes vision loss in different ways, and there can be some suggestions that are more targeted.

If there are kids in the house, start teaching/reinforcing them to put things away in the same spot (everything should have a home it goes it). That goes double for things on the ground that are tripping hazards (shoes, skateboards) and don't leave stuff sitting on stairs (because tripping on stairs is much worse).

I’ve got a sheet of stick on 3d gems. This really useful for marking things like keys, buttons and the dial on my washing machine.

There are specialist products that can be used for the same thing but I’ve found these cheaper and a bit more fun

Just throwing in Google Home mini speaker or Alexa. Pressing a button to get the time is one thing, talking to something is better. It also does weather, convertions, medication reminders, etc... Probably already have at least one, but if you don't then get one.

Hi. Sorry, may I ask the reason for her/his vision loss? Maybe I would suggest having pattern points on her daily routine or way just to guide her. Also, avoid appliances or appliances' edges that could hit them. I discovered a few online websites lately to buy things for my cousin's condition, there are some but make sure to check first. One of them is evika.io

Id suggest getting a tassimo coffee machine, single cup, no fear of spills/scalds etc. If not and pouring boiling water is necessary, put the cup on a tray so that of spills happen, they are contained on the tray.

Have a clean ping pong ball to put in a container that they are pouring liquid into, as the ping pong ball rises it shows how full it is getting.

Some of these might not be necessary as they person adjusts

If they use the internet they need to start using screen-reader software now. It is important to make life easier for them moving forward.

I really like smart home stuff. In particular the Google nest thermostat! Using the Google assistant I can tell it to turn on the heat or AC and I can also tell it to set it to a certain temperature. I can also ask what the current temperature is in the house. You can also control the thermostat using the Google Home app on your phone!

Literally a designated spot for everything and get rid of any extraneous things. Less stuff=less confusion and less to put away.
