Expert low vision support from New England Low Vision and Blindness

The RUBY 10 portable magnifier represents a thoughtful balance between advanced visual technology and human-centered design. At New England Low Vision and Blindness, we work closely with individuals, families, educators, and clinicians to match people with tools that genuinely improve daily life—not just on paper, but in real-world use.

Designed for real life, not just magnification

Unlike small handheld devices that can feel limiting, the RUBY 10 portable magnifier offers a spacious 10-inch touchscreen that makes reading, writing, and viewing photos feel natural again. Whether you are seated at a table, relaxing on the couch, or working at school or the office, the RUBY 10 adapts to your environment without adding complexity.

Backed by New England expertise you can trust

Our team understands that vision loss affects more than eyesight—it affects confidence, routines, and independence. That’s why we evaluate how the RUBY 10 portable magnifier fits into your daily life, offering personalized guidance, hands-on demonstrations, and ongoing support to ensure lasting success.

How will this product change your life?

The RUBY 10 portable magnifier changes daily experiences by removing visual barriers that often go unnoticed by others. Its large touchscreen allows users to see more content at once, reducing the need to constantly reposition materials. Adjustable magnification and high-contrast color modes help tailor the viewing experience to individual vision needs, whether reading fine print or viewing photos.

What makes the RUBY 10 different is how seamlessly it fits into everyday routines. It transitions easily from tabletop use for writing or reading to handheld use for quick tasks. The responsive touchscreen and physical controls provide flexibility for users with varying levels of dexterity and vision.

Instead of struggling through tasks or relying on others, users regain a sense of control. Over time, that control builds confidence—turning everyday activities into moments of independence rather than frustration.

“Devices like the RUBY 10 succeed because they respect the user. It’s powerful without being overwhelming, and it supports real independence. That’s exactly what we look for when recommending technology to our clients.”
— Scott Krug, President, New England Low Vision and Blindness

Unique, Patent Pending Viewing Modes

  • ColorSight+™ color blindness enhancements which shift specific colors to assist color differentiation in real-time. These filters are intended to improve contrast for protanopia (color blindness to red), deuteranopia (color blindness to green), and tritanopia (color blindness to blue).
  • GlareGuard™ attempts to maximize comfort during long-term use by minimizing pain from light sensitivity. This feature reduces the wavelengths of light associated with such pain. It is designed to achieve comfort while maintaining luminance and contrast levels acceptable to the user. Although we believe every eye condition can benefit from this feature, it is highly recommended for macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa.
  • EdgeScribe™ edge enhancement modes attempt to improve object recognition by removing visual clutter.
    • Edge enhancement makes the edges of objects in an image stand out against the background.
    • Edge-only mode removes colors, only showing the lines and edges of objects in view.
    • Edge smoothing reduces visual noise in high-contrast modes.
  • Aptiview™ algorithm dynamically adjusts the contrast in different parts of the image, which could improve the viewing experience in more lighting conditions than previously possible.

"Working with NELVB has been a truly positive experience. I first connected with Scott over a decade ago to support one of my students, and his involvement made a lasting impact on both the student and their family. Since then, he’s continued to provide valuable support through demos and programs. It’s always been about what’s best for the kids, and that’s what matters most to me."

"Thank you again for an excellent visit yesterday. My dad and I appreciated the time you spent with us, your thorough explanations of the various options and of the Stella lamp. I could tell that he was extremely pleased at the thought of being able to once again manage his piles of papers. My hope is with that victory and order, he’ll feel empowered and ready to tackle some other matters in his life."
